High HP guys- which oil pump?
A not too well known or discussed topic is that after about 400whp, the factory oil pumps in Hondas are known to shatter. Considering I'll be around that level, and that reliability is my #1 concern, I'll be upgrading mine.
I'd like to know what experiences you guys have with the oil pump upgrade companies. I know that Toda and Prodrive make them, but if you have another suggestion, please post them. Thanks very much.

dry sump is the way to go. but overall the best one out there will be the newly redesigned z10 eng one. Arvin and the boys out there should be coming up with a crzy one soon enough.

I'm pretty damn sure dry sump is out of my price range and feasibility for a daily driver 
But, which one do you use Viren?

Re: High HP guys- which oil pump? (Rob92SC)
Haaaaaaa.. That time was on my greddy kit , I have sold that kit to my friend and now have a custom race setup.. Best time soo far has been 12.0 with a 2.3 60ft @ 124mph.. This was on mild 18psi.. I took real easy b/c scared of breaking axels.. I am going to the track after some tunning , so letz see what happens.. Come down for the 28or 29 for the NIRA event , I will be fully prepared by then.. Low 11's easy......

Re: High HP guys- which oil pump? (Arturbo)
Jason Im also using the Prodrive...Its not too expensive and its proven. I got my for $195...Not bad considering the $195 in the long run could save me 10K If my motor was to grenade.

Actually that isnt mine, but mine is kinda the same. I have the same fittings but mine is on the shallow part of the oil pan. I dont have pics of it so I couldnt show you.

Re: High HP guys- which oil pump? (B18C-RnVA)
I know you guys are talking about high hp engines, but is there any need for one for a street turbo? Or is the stock pump completely fine?
