Well, it was a new engine in 2008, and it is Toyota's most current small 4 cylinder engine line as far as I know. But we haven't talked about a bunch of these features here. At least not to my knowledge. I just like to post this stuff to get creative juices flowing for new ecomods. You never know what people will come up with once they get an idea in their head.
Thanks for the links on the VW and Ford engines.
One day I'd absolutely love to read about how someone was reading on EcoModder, came up with an idea, patented it, and sold the idea to an automaker and it improved their entire fleet's fuel economy by X%.
