Speaking of retrofits, how about raising the 'Retrofit Max Percent Difference in Cost'?
If you want to make retrofitting cheaper than stock, but not make a loophole that can be exploited as much, the minimum settings I'd use are these:

Retrofit Cost Percent For Comps: 100
Retrofit Cost Percent For Comp Removal: 0
Retrofit Max Percent Difference in Cost: 50

I wouldn't make the Max Percent Diff larger - you'd lose a big part of the balancing factor (time).

Rollo, spoon, in general I like this idea, but I think there should be some sort of cost penalty to retrofit. Either "Retrofit Cost Percent For Comps: 110" or "Retrofit Cost Percent For Comp Removal 10".

On the other hand, this whole thing may be a "cat"astrophe.
