FI with continous high speed driving 130MPH+

Overall, It is good to know that even a stock factory engine with about 500whp can speed up to 190 mph and won't get burn out that easily if the entire engine temperature ( including oil ) stays cool enough and as long as the engine does not knock at that load.

The VVEL is very robust as long as we keep the rpm at 7500 rpm max and make sure that it does not have any moments of oil deprivation. If the VVEL mechanism is oil starved at all, there is a very highly likely chance that it will crash sooner or later. One of the things that I must do for my car is to add the Greddy oil pan in there.

This oil pan not only adds in about 2 additional quarts of oil and cools it further, it does gave some baffle plate design that will surely help to minimize if not eliminate oil starvation during 1.4 G turns at 6000+ rpm. Cheap insurance against burning out the motor, totally worth it. I will post detail of my work once I am done with that.
