Hey there!
Just wanted to update you guys on the progress on the 1.8l inline-4 for the Covet and show my progress!
So far, I've gotten the bottom mount turbo kit 90% of the way finished! There's currently 2 turbo options, a 53mm and a 62mm (model changes). There are 3 different locations for filters, you can have an upward tilted filter, a filter directly on the turbo, or a forward tilted filter that lines up with the front grille and is visible through the mesh. The same filters are available on the turbo and N/A options. There is also the option for a trumpet style flange directly on the turbo opening (similar to the Piccolina buggy turbos). The model features a working spinning turbine, a relocated oil filter with modeled feed and drain lines, options for a screamer pipe and a recirculated wastegate, and high quality textures!
The update is getting closer to being ready for a Patreon release for you guys to try out the new engine and I'm excited to get more time to work on the mod this summer!
