2009 Porsche 911 Engine Oil Sump Test Rig
#1

This is one of the many pre-production tests Porsche does before mass production.

Pretty amazing.

The rig replicates the G-forces encountered at the Nuburgring.

That, my friend, was cool!



I wonder how our engines would fare on that test...?! <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/blink.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

The 997 engines are semi dry sump.

Ours would do extremely well if the video of 968 engines contained sound clips and the engine wasn't running!!!!

That would be why there are so many different approaches to patching the sustained left (or is it right?) turn effects on oil in the pan that can result in low or non-existent oil pressure. The mod in my car is based on video taken inside the sump during cornering at a track. The mod design was verified in the same manner. This was developed several years ago on the 944. Even with the mod I have an Accusump on my wish list.
