ur speed limiter should already be disable depending on who did the harness, but to answer your question no on the neo seeing its only a fuel computer, and yes on the rom

Now, this is really quite simple, ok? Understeer works like this; you drive down the road, turn the wheel, but the car goes straight on, crashes into a tree and you die. Oversteer works like this: you drive down the same bit of road, turn the wheel, but the back of the car comes round like this, and you go off the road, crash into a tree and you die. Now, oversteer is best, because you don't see the tree that kills you.

I don't think you really have to have back-up lights really. Nor do you have to have a 3rd brake light. Both just make it easier on other drivers.

Read up. Manufacturers are required by federal law to do so but there is nothing stating that one has to have said lights after the manufacturer has delivered said vehicle.

You learn a lot when dealing with kit cars.

Most people but an inline switch to the power to their gauge cluster, if i remember correctly it goes by rpm, so hitting the switch and killing the power to that cuts the speed limiter, then when your done, you just kick the switch back on to get the gauges working again.

The OG way to do it is to interrupt the speed sensor signal with a switch. No need to kill the entire cluster.

No idea why anyone would want to rev a stock KA higher than its factory RPM limit though. It's already making gargling death noises and no power at 7k.
