Default oIL PRESSURE DROP

IF THE PAN YOU ARE USING IS A FRONT SUMP WITHOUT ANY BAFFLES IT IS VERY POSSIBLE THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE OIL IS BEING FORCED AWAY FROM THE PICKUP DURING HARD LAUNCHES, HARD CARNERING OR SEVERE BRAKING. AS SAID EARLIER THESE CARS CREATE HARD CORNERING FORCES. GET A PAN WITH TRAP DOORS, BAFFLES AND A WINDAGE TRAY. IT'S THE CHEAPEST HORSEPOWER YOU CAN BUY.
