X51, deep sump needed?
I recently purchased a 2001 Boxster S that I am autocrossing and planning on DE's. I'm planning on adding a X51 and my question is do I need to add a deeper pan? I'm looking at the Tarrett Engineering baffle and the FVD Motorsport pan that increases volume and has the baffle.

I have both items and still have pressure drops, but I'd say yes, you want the deep sump.

I installed this, one stop shopping: https://lnengineering.com/2qt-deep-sump-oil-pan-kit-inc-pickup-tube-extension-windage-tray-x51-baffle.html |
Thanks! The LN Engineering solution looks like the best solution for me.

That's the one i have too, the LN. I had a 1.2L mantis that i was going to compare but lost my enthusiasm for the swap because the ln was working good for me, combined with a 10W50 oil (getting s hot down here in the SE...)

I've got a Tarrett baffle, was easy to install and my car hasn't died yet. No data system in my car unfortunately.

The Mantissport 2 litre pan isn’t too low for the Boxster.
