I'm not sure I'd consider my turbo or oil a "trend" but I know what you are saying. If you saw my car "following trends" isn't really a term that would come to mind.
And i feel your pain on oil changes. I use damned near 7qts @ $10+ a pop. Thank God I don't race every weekend LOL

Yeah and happens if you don't? Exactly they will not rebuild your turbo under warrenty and you have to pay for it out of pocket. I can choose what ever oil I want and it is going to be the same either way. Don't get me wrong having high zinc content is the way to go don't get me wrong. I just choose to use whatever type of oil I want and what is funny Schaffers isn't even on that list and it has way more zinc then Brad Penn and it is much better oil by far. I don't want to thread jack this about oil or anything but I am just saying.
LOL and here I thought you were a poster child for trend lol. Yeah not fun when oil changes cost you 100 bones a crack. Good thing I invested in a Magnus oil filter lol. Clean it out put it back in done. 80 bucks well spent

Pm some pics to me, I like that you aren't afraid to experiment, I'm very much the same way.
I don't like when your trying to help someone or a group to improve on something and the group is picking you apart, oil pressure logs, temperature logs, prove this, prove that, like your a friggin scientist or something.
Anyway, I'm down for more capacity, let me know, I'm in LA.

Just like I was on the fence about a Racefeb until Balrok bought one and posted results. Just like I am on the fence about yours, $500 is a lot of cash for an unproven part. We actually know the AMS/Moroso pan does NOT work for road course racing, so no one should be buying that one.

I didn't have any logs on RF's parts at all, but I did from OEM and AMS. I simply did all the research and spoke with the owner to firm my decision. My postings were cause I like to share with the community when I find something that works well. The data did all the talking for it. I'll likely have to work out a deal when I go drysump however.

As for the trap doors and other baffling, it can only help. I don't see myself getting to a road course soon (i'm at full pressure at every autox i've done, despite Gs or weather; but not that same, IMO), so I'm okay with keeping this bit to myself. It really is a lot of trouble to get one out for someone else, and (like i said 10x before) i'm lazy LOL. I was just trying to give people options. Or not.
It sounds like I'm trying to sell a pan. I'm honestly not. Just justifying my spending $500 LOL
