Hayabusa Sump Mod & Baffle Plate
I want to shorten my Hayabusa sump, albeit by a fairly small amount (25 mm 'ish), but at the same time would it be best to enlarge it to
increase the capacity, and what type of baffle plate would be best to use? There are a couple of types out there, ie flat plates, the type that
Extreme sell etc. I am running an accusump also.
Any thoughts or advice would be most welcome 
Cheers, Nick

Hi Danny, Icould do but I would have to modify the chassis rail to do so on my car, and that would be a PITA!

Don't believe everything you are told Dry sump is not the only safe way to go. (Actually, dry sumps have failed on these and other engines).
There are a few people that run these with turbo power and slicks that have had no problem, HOWEVER they have kept the sump as per standard so that
you have full capacity. The only problem with this, is that it decreases the ground clearance.
