Does anyone know if the 997.2 9A1 engines suffer from oil starvation when they are tracked with R-comps?

Apparently it can be an issue with M96/97 engines that are tracked vigorously with tight suspension mods and R-comps.

 

nope

 

Not on my Cayman di engine with full sticks. never goes below like 30 psi

 

At VIR the minimum oil pressure in my Cayman R is 44.6 psi. Generally the oil pressure correlates with engine RPM. But I have notice one exception - hard left turn immediately following heavy braking will cause oil pressure go even lower than normal. Examples would be turn 4 at VIR and turn 10a at Road Atlanta.

This is another benefit of data logging system that people don't usually think about. By regularly reviewing engine health parameters (oil pressure, oil temp, coolant temp, rpm/over-rev), we can adapt our driving to ensure a long and healthy life of the engine.

Below is my engine health view in AiM Race Studio. Orange trace is oil pressure. Blue trace is RPM.
