hey, im sorry if this has been covered before, but I would really like to see the following.

more choices on colors for the valve covers, mainly purple. every car I have ever owned has got its valve cover powder coated illusions purple ( hks purple )

being able to choose weather or not you want lettering on your valve cover and being able to choose what it says if you choose.

also this is not a valve cover option but being able to select either distributor cap, coil on plugs, or coil to wire set up ignitions

thanks

Jordan.

There will be more colours eventually yeah.


Custom lettering on rocker covers is really difficult at it'd have to generate all its own textures and normal maps on the fly and make sure they all fit/justify correctly on every single different rocker cover. Its already really hard just to do with the pre-done textures such that all the rocker covers fit the text nicely.


Ignition systems are rolled into the fuel system selection, and are considered to be part of the performance gains of selecting a better fuel system. Going to coils is part of the performance gain of running EFI for example.

we should be able to choose distributor ignition or not, because my dads truck (1990 Toyota 4runner) is EFI, but it has a distributor. just an idea.

Honda used distributors up to 2001 or so, but really doesn't make a big difference in the game, same goes for timing chain/belt, it makes a difference when you have to rebuild/maintain the engine

cosmetically yes, i would love to have a choice between different ignition systems, would just look nice
