Rev it as hard as possible in first gear. If the engine cuts out at the top end of the revs, then the limiter is kicking in.
If the engine explodes in a cloud of smoke and a metallic crunching noise is heard, the limiter has not done its job.

HTH.  :)
I reckon you need to upgrade your Public Liability Insurance with some of your 'Stemo's Omega easy Fixes'.  ;D

Technically probably not, given he did clearly state the outcome that would befall anyone daft enough to try  :D
