Tom the bit that makes me think this is, the only things that know how fast the car is going, is the TCU and the speedo. I can"t see how the ECU could tell.
I think buried in among all the geek talk, there is a little routine that waits for the 187Kph to come up and pulls the torque control. Only having half the power, would produce a good speed limiter.

Another one for Phil, in his spare time.
