The price point was damn decent with shipping, especially with the conversion rate. The one thing that did stand out for me:

Minus the sealing issues of the AMS pan. Have you compared the data from it to the Racfab pan? I'd love to see both graphs next to each other.

The AMS/Moroso doesn't help for road course work. It only helps with acceleration g forces.

Good thing my stock oil pan didn't sell last year . Going to have to look into getting this done during the offseason next year.

It still would be interesting to see the overlay. I know he has data with both pans at the same track with similar lap times.

Well it's not as easy to compare. Firstly on AMS I had a leaking head, no catch cans, no Kiggly, and 60 less hp. Then when you look at the graph you cannot tell whats a turn and whats a decel vs accel, so the numbers won't overlay too perfectly. So i'm hesitant in order to not distract from the topic which is does "this" pan work. But if ya'll want it I can see what I can find. I'm working on the video and adding the data to it so as to create a better view for those wanting a nerds eye view.

Super interested in results. Thanks for scouting this route. Thinking if it's the answer we should try to get a group buy together as it'd be way cheaper for the shop to fab 10x pans at once rather than individually.

Kinda OT: If you're editing the video with http://www.dashware.net, do you have a nice Evo 8/9 dash .xml?
