Use the ECU that came with your car.

The engine in the car is not "governed"...any type of speed control takes place in the ecu, which is located behind and directly below your stereo.......

I wasnt aware of any governor other than the fuel cut setting. Specially on a 1g Why are you looking for this? What problem are you having that would make you think it was a governor causing it?
