Again, Deep sump

So, this old topic :-)

986s 2003. I run the X51 baffle in the oem oil pan. R-compounds (Cup2).

Under hard acceleration in a long righthander I have at some moments seen the oilpressure lamp flicker. Clearly this is not ok so before next session I need to adress it.

I know about the lack of scavenge pumps on bank1 (front) and bank2 (rear) so I guess it´s in my case oil pooling in bank2 so the pickup sucks air. Since adding scavenge pumps is very expensive and a bit complicated maybe, I believe my options are:
1) Deep sump
2) Accusump

Since the deep sump is far easier to install than the accusump, this is what I´m leaning at.

So, am I goint in the right direction? I´m looking at the FVD deep sump, are those extra 0.6 litres really enough to make a difference? Any advices from you guys?
