i'm amazed that someone hasn't done the arduino thing for variocam + engine conversions - so much easier than a full dme swap. I've heard of rpm-based on/off switches, but apparently not very smooth.

Smooth enough for track work, maybe not for street. Kinda feels like a turbo kicking in at 3200 RPM.
