The GM powered Atoms might not have this problem, because they don't use a magnet on the driveshaft.  Instead, they use the OEM sensor inside the tranny. 

Mine does do some funny stuff at low speeds, including the occasional spaz up to 160mph when barely moving, but it doesn't seem as bad as what you're describing.

Well it's been confirmed a few posts up that the EcoTecs have the same problem - most likely because it's the same dash, and speed is computed in a similar manner.
