oil safety
OK so assuming I got the following what issues would I have:
Oil Cooler
Accusump oil accumulator
baffled oil pan
oil catch can
thermostat
thicker oil
braided oil lines using coupler to install ends

Well any of those things could fail. Lower oil pressure with all the extra lines. Oil cooler will cause your oil temps to be too low except on a road course type race track (unless thermostat means an oil thermostat in which case I've never seen one put into a s2000 so you'd be the first which means all new problems you've never thought of)

Wow I thought the folks using tstats was for the oil....why hasn't anyone else used this for oil so far?
Canton is close by to me and I'm trying to see if I can get them to use my car as a test pilot....I think this thing of not being able to track boosted cars is crazy and it needs to be figured out.
