I think I am really bad at searching for this kind of stuff or something...I can't find any cam timing/duration info! grrrrr can someone help lol.

Dimman good suggestion, bike engine would actually be a MUCH better indication because bikes have a lot less emissions considerations. As I said, I think the high EGR is for emissions as EGR reduces pumping losses, but increases charge temperature and thus reduces heat ratio. My hypothesis is that a bike engine has an advanced exhaust cam at low-medium speed to reduce EGR, and advanced intake for VE. It's probably unlikely that a bike engine has load dependent VVT right?
