ah, sorry - you are already on that and i missed your filter comparison post. my bad. ok, so flow looks like ...

oil pump - avg 64 - remote filter - accusump insertion avg 58 - way down the line to the heads avg 34

so actually not much drop across the filter then. and it is tiny (8 micron) filter w/o bypass so no issues there.

i agree i am seeing little need for the pressure switch. my triumph gt6 race car has an accusump with just manual valve and seems to work fine. also, a caveat to those installing an accusump without a remote filter - with just a sandwich plate to add the accusump, i think it inserts before the filter (pls correct if i am wrong) so average pressures would be in the 60's and not the 50's which might affect choise of pressure switch if going in that direction?
