I ran one for a year on my track BRZ. It was a fun tinkering project for me to build a bracket, make the AN lines, route the cable. In theory it would provide some safety margin against oil starvation in long, continuous G-Load corners on track. The reality is that on 100tw slicks, on the track configurations that I run, I wasn't generating enough lateral G long enough to oil starve the motor (fuel starvation at anywhere near a half tank is a different story
. Maybe someday after I go FI on hoosiers I'll need one.
I have a complete accumulator setup for sale cheap in the classifieds if you want to try one out!
