oil pan and Intake Manifold for 3sgte st185

[davidleonardi]

There are 2 questions which I still have doubts. If I'd like to change my oil carter to oil pan, what benefits would affect to my vehicle ?

Another question is that if I'd like to change my intake manifold to a bigger one, what would be the advantages to my car ?

Besides changing these 2 parts, are there any other parts do I need to change or adjust in order for those 2 above mods to be most effective.

Yr advice would be really appreciated. I've tried asking several mechanics in local, but they just could not provide me with very satisfying answers.

Thanks.

? not sure what exactly your asking in regards to the oil sump. you can get moroso ones that increase the capacity and have baffles to prevent oil starvation with hard cornering which i doubt you do.(it's not a race car)

if you talking about a dry sump setup then again, there'd be no benefit to your street car.

bigger plenum i doubt will give you any gains in performance. are you still running the stock ct26?

Jonathan,

May I hv yr private e mail address please ? Thanks.

Yes I'm still using the stock ct26 turbo. What I want to know is that what's the real purpose of the oil pan ? Why do u say that it's not needed for street car ?
