Turbo the only engine performance upgrade?

[saprodzz]

I was just wondering if there is a any other ENGINE performance upgrades to increase power besides the turbo. So far I have found nothing besides just general maintenance for the engine. It would be cool if they added more parts that actually increase power such as custom exhaust or custom camshafts etc.

I want to do aftermarket internals (a little of everything from pistons to valve springs), ITBs as an option, and possibly plenum spacers. That stuff will wait until we have a good dyno tuning sim because I really don't want to build a game where parts are things like +5 horsepower.

Also I think we are planning to move the car classing to be based on power to weight ratio + tire and aero rules. This will let V8 cars with some ballast to potentially compete with turbo cars, etc. Basically players will have multiple ways to build competitive cars and we can introduce more creativity into the game.

That is amazing to here! This makes me even more excited to keep on playing, I can't wait till we are able to experience that.
