Speed Limiter Removal
Speed limiter removal — for vehicles where the restriction no longer applies or is causing operational issues.
Book a remap →Some vehicles are fitted with electronic speed limiters during manufacture or by fleet operators. When a vehicle changes use — moving from fleet to private ownership, or to a new role where the original restriction is no longer appropriate — removing or adjusting the limit via the ECU is a legal and straightforward process.
Speed limiter adjustments are carried out via the ECU and are specific to your vehicle’s configuration. We carry out the work professionally, with the original parameters recorded before any changes are made.
Please note: speed limiter removal is only legal for road use where the resulting speed capability does not exceed legal road speed limits, or where the vehicle is used on private land, track, or in a professional context where the restriction is no longer required. We’ll confirm the appropriate context before proceeding — this is not something we carry out without a clear and reasonable application.

Frequently asked
Is speed limiter removal legal?
It depends on the context and intended use. Removing a fleet limiter on a vehicle moving to private use is generally unproblematic. We discuss the application before any work is carried out.
Can a speed limiter be reinstated?
Yes. We record the original parameters and can restore the restriction if needed.
Does a speed limiter adjustment affect anything else?
Not typically. It's a targeted ECU change that doesn't affect other calibration parameters unless we're combining it with other work.
Who typically needs this service?
Fleet vehicles moving to private or commercial use, ex-lease vehicles, and certain professional applications. If you're unsure whether your situation applies, just call us.
