Well if we ignore the brand names a Crossram intake is just a 2 4barrel setup with long intakes. And since 2 4barrel is already made for V8 the question is only whether there will be longer intakes but that is just as relevant for I4 as it is for V8 and since we haven't seen any I wouldn't count on it being in the game at release.

As for max wedge engines, As far as I know they are just high performance version of Chryslers big block V8 with a wedge combustion chamber. And since Automation doesn't let select combustion chamber (again this would be just as relevant for I4s), there isn't much special about the Max Wedge in the sense of what it takes to recreate it in Automation.

Loady when you make these posts please look past the brand name to what actual components Automation would need, Then consider if it's just relevant for engine type or if it's actually relevant for all/most engines. And lastly try giving the post it self a bit more attention instead of just posting a picture and a single line of text.

will try to do that in the future..... sorry :/

and it would be good to have different combustion chambers, special intakes and such in automation at some-point that engine in the picture could really tear up the strip even coming from the factory.

an example of why different combustion chambers should be added at some point would be Chrysler's hemi those engines had quite a long production run ..

Well you don't here much about combustion chamber design except Chryslers marketing (and the long term effect thereof). A lot of other engines have Hemisphere combustion chambers but you never hear people talking about those.

true.... .the engines that are called a hemi nowadays aren't really hemis, but i meant back in the 50s 60s and 70s when a hemi actually had a hemispherical combustion chamber i just think different combustion chambers like wedge or hemi or pent-roof would be something that might be fun to add later on ....... wait aren't pent-roof combustion chambers already in the game for 3 or 4 valves ?
