speedo challenged

I put a new t5 in my car and it had a mech speedo putput, I pulled out the bullet and it had a purple driven gear (22 tooth), and a purple drive gear (7 tooth?). this trans is not original, I just was wondering if other size driven gears with work with my 7 tooth drive gear (what a search told me a purple drive gear is) what driven gear I need for the speedo to read correctly ( 3.08 rear with stock 245/50/16's )
