There is no need to perform the runs you just mentioned as the VVEL tuning we performed did not net very high numbers(but hey, don't take my word for it I only tuned the car).
Obviously the gains are primarily due to other bolt-on mods -- particularly the headers... I don't think anyone here thought 30+ whp came just from valve timing adjustment on a NA car.

What I'm trying to determine is the approximate degree of improvement with this set-up achieved from tuning alone with the ability to ALSO tune VVEL.

Can you give us more detail on that. For example, by how much were you able to increase max lift? Are there limits built into the new software (or constrained by the ECU) to prevent causing physical damage?

I'm not questioning your word -- I'm seeking more detailed information regarding the new tuning parameter...
