Frank I see also improvement on ICE. One of the new things on valve timing and lift of the valve is coming from Sweden. A company called Cargine in Lund is making a controleble air cylinder with oil damping to control timing and lift. I use one of their cylinders for an other application. It really wotks nice , you can set via SW each wanted timing and lift and lift duration.
This could be of big importance for optimizing the ICE in combination with more gears.
