Finally got to datalog track time oil pressure and accusump data over the weekend at Bondurant. This was my first time at Wild Horse Pass on the Bondurant loop. Pro-Autosport was using the Main track, so the Carousel was closed off and the track was only about a 1 mile long very technical short track with some elevation changes.
I'm still going through the data and analyzing it, looking at how effective the Accusump system I have in my car is at reducing oil starvation issues in the M96 3.2 engine. I should have a video rendered up here soon, as well as a spreadsheet with some graphs to illustrate how quickly the oil pressure is restored following a dip (lag time). Specifically, I'll be crunching the data to see exactly how long it takes from the time the oil pressure dip is detected (accusump pressure switch post oil filter) to the time the oil pressure at the standard location (valve cover) is restored to pre-dip values. It's looking like anywhere from 120 to 500 milliseconds so far. My goal is to share empirical data so that people can make up their own minds as to how effective (or not) it is.
