Lose the variable valve timing and the multi displacement system. Simple wins. Just because it's old don't mean it's broken.

I agree that simple wins. But i think it's wishful thinking that torque is going to be anywhere near that number at that rpm. I have a feeling it will be at a considerably higher rpm. Which is why gas engines suck for towing a decent load.
