Yeah, I was afraid of that. According to some other searching I had done it looks like the timing is pretty hard-core set in that even dealer techs can only check that it's set to stock. I might be able to adjust it by modding the ECU, but I don't know if it would be worth the cost/hassle just for that.

So unless I could control all the valves and injectors individually, the cylinder deactivation would probably just give me a constant "check engine" or worse.
