For an extra margin of safety while tracking, yes. However, the Accusump will MarcW - Monday, 18 July, 2011, at 6:47:12 pm |

Ran into an issue at the track this weekend. Hard down hill braking into a hard left hander and back on the gas generated a nice cloud of oil smoke. For subsequent laps I reduced speed and throttle through the turn to stop it. From what I'm reading this could be caused by oil starvation and the solution is installing an accusump. The car is a 2003 2.7, I'm running R888 tires and has a oil pan extender. And, the AOS was replaced last fall for the 2nd time.

I quick follow-up on my post. Installed the Motorsports AOS last week and did a 3 day DE on the same track this past weekend. Car ran terrific and out of turn 5 I was doing a power induced rotation into a short straight into hard braking for a right hander and back on the gas. Bottom line, never even a trace of oil smoke. Ran the car with the oil level down 2 bars on the display and it never dropped. In fact, I've not seen ANY smoke even on start up. It seems: Problem solved!
