I suspect it may have something to do with the FCV having boost-by-gear and "Arsenic Mode". It's possible that there was some trouble getting that to work with adjustable boost in terms of which one would override which. Not sure how adjustable rev limits figure into that though.

The Bastion normally uses superchargers, so that's what its ECUs would be designed around. I've done quite some poking into the behavior of superchargers and their properties are automatically modified by the rev limit, which appears to be core game behavior as I couldn't find any reference to it in the Bastion's or Barstow's files. See here:

Thus, with the Bastion, there wouldn't be any trouble with having adjustable turbochargers and rev limiters; the adjustable rev limiters control intended supercharger behavior and none of the supercharger-related code should interfere at all. (Note that I have not checked how the Bastion's turbos and drive modes interact with each other, if "Caged Mode" and similar still work with adjustable turbos then it's possible that everything I just said is irrelevant and there's no technical reason why the FCV couldn't have them.)

A much simpler explanation is that the devs wanted to force reliance on high-trim ECUs and canned tunes as a way to simulate the tuning-hostile complexity of modern cars, though while you could argue that the Bastion is running on old tech and is thus more conducive to shade-tree modification, or that the Bastion being a fully US-made-for-US-market car while the FCV and ETKs are partially or completely made for Europe has something to do with it, this really doesn't explain the Scintilla, which points back toward technical reasons... maybe?

Possibly the simplest explanation of all is, the game isn't finished yet and the devs aren't fully sure what they want tuning to look like when it is, so they're trying multiple approaches at once.

Does any dev have an official explanation here? We can't figure out the rationale for tuning differences between certain cars... and since I thought of it, I'd like to know what makes superchargers behave the way they do in Beam, and whether this behavior can be disabled when making a mod.
