The more I think it about it the more I like this idea. This would work awesome with a turbo for mid-load lean burn. See here I go again back to turbo world.lol

On my Talon the turbo gives me a 11% increase at 1psi in combustion efficiency over N/A. The more boost I run in lean burn the more the efficiency goes up.

So with your build you could run it in N/A at light load with a Atkinson cycle and at mid load still keep it in lean burn, but you would gain back some extra torque?

Hmmmmm. Must Ponder this.......
