Key/password operated valet for your FD?

Do any of the FD ECUs(stand alone) on the market have the capabilities to limit RPMs to say 2000rpm for a "valet mode"? Can a key lock be utilized for the switching from normal to low rpm use? What I think im saying is an outside imput like a switch/key connected to the ECU... or a password to lock out normal driving?

I wanted something that I can switch over in a hurry... maybe even getting into a carjacking scenario... turn the key and take it with you... guy would probably leave the car.

Ive had people rev the **** out of my car on "test drives" and Im afraid that if I ship it somewhere theyll play with it...

i know on the poweer fc on the hand held part you can lower the rev limiter down or up to whatever you want, when i take mine to a garage for things that they dont need to be going wide open i just lower the rev limiter to 3500RPM and thats all they can go

Most you have to just punch in manually. Only takes a few seconds. That's usually what I do on my AEM for emissions.
