haha yeah…I will find them KillRob I was trying to build a few Turbo Era F1 engines but I can compromise lol less boost but still its okay lol I cant wait for the V12 to come out
We’ll why do we have to know cars that have boost levels over 3 bar in order to raise the limit in the game? just asking, but i can think of few. Black Smoke Racing team has 3.2 bar in their Mercedes-Benz W123 wagon driftcar, and BMW had the 1.5l racing engine in the eighties, could withstand over 5 bars of boost. Raising the boost limit adds bit of fun (or you may call it insanity) into the game.
While that may seem like an example, it really isn’t: you did see the word “diesel” in there, didn’t you?
What must be mentioned in that context is that once/if diesels are added, they will get their own engine designer!
And including higher pressures for diesel engines only makes sense, as these examples show. For petrol cars, they really don’t!
I’m hoping that isn’t an entirely serious question lol…yes of course I did. I also noticed the lack of the words ‘diesel’ or ‘petrol’ in the question you asked. You asked for examples of cars with over 3bar boost - there’s 5 of them, even if they all use the same engine I don’t disagree that the game should align itself with whatever is out there, but I would love to hear the technical explanation as to why lots of boost like that cant be used on a petrol engine.
Heh, alright then I was too much only considering stuff within Automation 1.0
Why you can’t make use much boost in petrol engines? Mainly because octane requirements go ballistic with added boost, as the effective compression of the engine increases. That’s why you want to use higher boost in diesels, as they benefit from higher compression without having most of the disadvantages.
