That oil baffle plate is meh. Revo have a couple of designs as well.
The oil pans I see getting developed are also meh. They have no R&D. They're just working to the "is has more capacity and should be better" mentality.
Toyota Racing New Zealand recognised this problem as they were developing their TR86 race car. They made 5 or 6 designs, tested them all until they came up with a final solution. Details are minimal as they have told us in the NZ owners club that they will be brining it to market (they want to sell all the products they've developed) but want to protect their IP first. I know one of the guys is due to receive his unit in a few weeks for 3rd party testing.
All the details I know, are that it has more capacity, it has a modified pickup, and they have tested it on various race tracks under race conditions on full slicks without issue.
If it was me, I would just go dry sump. But these wet sumps options will still have a place in the market for those that want to retain AC (that's where I'd put the DS pump)
