If they are having trouble doing it from a reflash why not just go that route. That would make putting twinscrew on frickin easy too which would make me happy. This would even allow someone to put a simple lock plate in place of the actuator to hold the vvel at max open to act like a big cam.
That's a really, really good idea -- yeah, if you can do that, a realtively simple controller could probably handle the VVEL actuation without actually uncracking the ECU for it.

Although if currently throttle control is essentially equivalent to VVEL timing, I wonder if you can simply tune by TPS adjustment and indirectly adjut VVEL that way.

And a twinscrew or standard roots blower on this car would be awesome
