I thought koenigsegg was already doing this with their freevalve thing
Also I saw an interesting point in an article about the koenigsegg thing that would pertain to this too; environmental laws would be much harder to practically enforce with this as you could run virtually any engine anemic enough to get though the emissions tests (and set it as the default mode to get around the Volkswagen nonsense) and then offer high/sport/cruise modes that runs the engine at full capacity otherwise
