Governor Removal?

I have a 2005 F-350, CC Lariat with a 6-speed manual. I installed the Edge Juice w/ Attitude controller and the DPS 2-stage Water/Meth injection system . The problem I ran into is that I still have a speed limit of around 99MPH .

Is there a way to change this with the Edge? Is there a way to adjust the governor without a tuner? If some one could help me with this I would appreciate it greatly. I love the edge , but want to get rid of the speed limit.

Governor Removal

Beefcake

U Might Want To Consider Getting A Sct Xcalibrator With A Custom Tune To Stack With Your Edge Fueling Box, I'm Currently Unaware Of Any Add On Device To Remove The Top Speed Limiter. The Sct Will Also Tune Your Shifting, A Good Idea When Your Running The Edge Juice, As It Does Nothing For The Tranny. ...mark

In this case neither would the SCT as he has a 6-speed manual transmission

Yeah, I was looking at the SCT. I saw it was capable of holding 3 programs and could be customized. What would be the posibilities of stacking it with the edge using a mild program on the SCT also for more power? I do have open exhaust and the DPS 2-stage water injection system to lower EGT's. I am mostly worried about the extreame timeing advancement this would cause and the clutch's ability to grab.

Actually BD Power makes a box that will eliminate just the limiter, 200 bucks, I think.
