So based on what I've seen so far, at this point, my opinion is that the oiling system is functioning as it should. If it wasn't, there would be a glut of track guy issues, and we're just not seeing that on a scale that point to an inherent problem. Heck the silicone on the oil pickup seems to be more of an issue than this.

Can it be improved? Of course! We haven't got the point of installing sensors all over our FA24 BRZ to KNOW what's going on yet, but based on our knowledge I think it's highly probable that this feedback is a combination of normal and poor pressure sender location.

The OEM pressure switch location is horrible and will magnify pressure changes caused by AVCS. A sandwich adapter should be better, but I'd prefer to see something further from the filter and closer to the pump. My gut tells me you will see an overall pressure increase, especially at higher RPMs, but AVCS will still cause a flattish or slight drop in pressure at the upper RPMs, which is normal.
