i guess i had an unlucky car, im sure boost and outings at the drag dont help either, im just thankful i caught the issue with my defi gauge because the OEM oil pressure light never came on. this ultimately saved my motor.

Again.To be clear the gaskets did not fail, they were completely intact. The fasteners backed out causing drops in oil pressure, why did they back out? i can only speculate.

Do you have aftermarket engine or trans mounts thus causing more NVH?

You do not need aftermarket parts for the screws to back out.
