I have read alot about turbo engines and common problems and one thing that I have seen alot oil systems not producing a steady supply of oil on turbo engines(N/A as well I'm sure) that are making alot more power than what they were designed to.
And or lack oil in the high RPM range resulting in spinning rod bearings. I already have an oil cooler and the relocated oil filter(I know relocation doesn't help). Is there anything else I can do to imrove the factory oil system? (1)would a larger capacity oil pan help? (2)is there a larger volume oil pump for our cars? (3)can I use a DRY sump oil system?, are there any available I know I probably am not exeding the limit of my factory system yet, but I am trying to plan ahead and have the safest most efficient engine I can have- So any help would be appreciated -------------------- If anyone is missing NASCAR and it's not on Speed Channel, take a fistful of Skittles, throw them in the toilet and hit the flush handle. Instant NASCAR!!!

If you want to add an oil cooler to your ST the entire set up will cost about $200-$300 (which includes the cooler, lines, filter relocation kit, block adapter, and all fittings). I put in an oil cooler in a while back http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=27896 -------------------- |
