Alien dude. I was just having a little fun with ya. Your statements above still depict a woeful ignorance about how cylinder deactivation and pumping losses work. I and others here are simply trying to not so subtly tell you that, but you seem unwilling to believe anything that you don't guess to be true to begin with.
I can assure you with 100% certainty that cylinder deactivation on an engine not highly engineered to operate that way will yield awful results. The fundamental process that explains why it is doomed is the concept called pumping loss. This is why I say learn about what this is and what its implications are before you try to move ahead.
