Was pain limiting though? Pain is meant to help one focus the dark side, isn't it?

Its not the pain that is limiting. Palps basically used off brand, and mixed brands for the suit, so it just sucked. Palos also later offered a brand new upgraded version, but Vader Turned it down

Was there a lore reason that Anakin didn't go to town with his engineering prowess on an improved suit?

I could see it as it being less practical.

It's hard to hide upgrades from your boss like that and that bodes ill

Additionally, he would have to put his arms back on with just the force which he seems to use with less finesse as Vader.

Finally, there's still the breathing apparatus where you'd either need to be really quick about it, or let a third party replace that for you which would be more or less suicide even if he kept it in house.
