I've also noticed that the stock S50 sump has a lovely looking baffle in it with two oil return door "thingies" in it that will un bolt. I suspect i'll be using this in some way to make the baffle in my sump..

We could do with a directory of images of peoples sumps to give folks an idea of where to start.. I cant bring myself to pay for the VAC motorsport one...

I've also read that its not 100% percent proven that a baffle is needed too, having heard stories from both sides of the coin... But risking an S50 is never a good idea.
