Looks like I just found another hole for my money to jump into....sheeit.

In comparison to the new CJM baffled oil pan, would the CJM pan suffice if the car isn't subject to excessive strain?

A big hole. It's not a cheap setup, and you lose AC unless you can figure out a way to make a custom setup. The oil pump goes where the AC compressor is.

As long as you stick to the factory 7500 rpm limit, a wet sump will be fine on these cars.

I think I remember that on a review...(highest hp NA). I live in GA, and I DO love my AC.

Good to know, I need to know my limitations lol...especially with the way I drive. (with a sense of urgency)
