Ive never heard of anyone needing one with these engines, that is including race teams running on slicks.

Having oil pressure issues? The newer Tsi engine is known to be sh*t for oil starvation on track  :sick:

Due to the size of the oil pump and balance shafts, it's not possible to baffle the sumps.

Only way to do so is to convert to a 1.8T oil pump and use a baffled 1.8T sump.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the original Subaru Impress used a boxter design engine, which came from Porsche.

Ferdinand Porsche was the man who designed the first Volkswagen (under Hitlers orders).

This means that Subaru Imprezas are a half cousin of the Golfs.
