Default baffled oil pan

Do I need one now that I plane on 600whp
Would I be having any oil starvation problems due to harder acceleration?

What i saw was that when i accelerated the Pressure dropped from 6 to 5.5bar. but this also happened on the dyno so i don't know.
I wasn't going no where on the dyno

be careful with the baffles as some of the ones being sold came apart and got sucked into the oil pump, causing oil starvation. This was from an NA guy doing some serious lateral G stuff

Unless you're autocrossing or tracking the car you won't need a baffled oil pan. The baffles are designed to keep oil around the oil pickup during excessive lateral Gs.

Then the company selling it didn't take responsibility too right?
