There's really no need for that: the VVL (and, really, even the regular ole DE) is plenty flexible, with lots of low-end torque, that it really doesn't need to be up there on the highway. Something that can lower the revs 500 or so (the more the better) would be nicer for cruising along.

The P10 G20 has a final drive of 4.058:1 and a 0.733 5th gear, that 
would help you out some.
