I was thinking about this thread when I saw his fb post haha. Seems like a lot has changed since he tried his hybrid build

Holy cow - much simpler to just be able to drop a complete FA24 in with some wiring adapters! Downside, I guess, is you inherit the FA24's oil pressure drop issues, but damn...

In the FA24s, is the oil pressure drop really that big of a deal?

From what little bit that I have heard about the GR cup cars, they don't seemed overly concerned about it..

There has been a fair amount of independent reporting about the issue. Seems pretty real. 900brz on YouTube is probably the best source.

There is hopefully a fix coming soon from verus

I think an Accusump does mitigate the problem to some degree but nobody seems to have blown up their engine because of temporary drops in pressure. Granted, any drop in pressure is not ideal, but is it really an engine killer?

Well 900brz already blew up his engine once so you can reach out to him on YouTube and ask if he knows for sure it was due to the pressure drop. He seems good about replying.

Btrgarge is also testing and did the accusump but I don’t think it helped much. I’m sure the damage from the pressure drops are very track dependent IE ones with long sweepers.

The problem definitely exists as for how much damage it’s causing who knows. It’s oil temps/pressure all over again lol
