If that is the case when the vvel gets cracked they could probably sell the accesport for mines or topsecret ecu flash prices and still have it be the 3rd most desirable power adder (after intake and exhaust) short of forced induction. If the CVTC can be modified as well there would be gains in it for the forced induction guys by retarding the cam timing to reduce valve overlap
Good write up, so there is some potential for some good hp gains equal to HFC and CBA. Interesting, I might have to pick one up when they finally do it
