Any one heard of this and if so what exactly do i do?
Are you sure about this? Typically the restriction is effected by changing the unit that controls fuelling and ignition, or by fitting restricting washers in the inlet rubbers so as to limit the airflow to roughly 1/3rd of full throttle.
Also, are you still on a restricted licence? If yes then removing the restriction can have some serious consequences - but I'm sure you know this.
I know the law is silly, you know the law is silly - but it's still the law.
