Looking for limiter/governor info

I am looking into installing a limiter/governor or seeing if it's possible to lower the speed in the factory settings... I'm more of a techie than a mechanic, so I have to wonder if it's possible to change things in the computer. That's cheaper than adding hardware. Has anyone done this and if so, how? Thanks.

In what way does this thread fit in the "classifieds"?

It is moved now.

FWIW. The speed limiter can be changed in the program. Anything you try to come up with will no doubt throw a CEL.

Due to the possibility of personal liability issues involving modifications to the software used to control the Vehicle Speed Limiter, and the grey areas pertaining to current modifications of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S. Code § 1201 - Circumvention of copyright protection systems) we're going to close this thread.
