Mugen pan owner here too.

Though I've only heard bad things on the Moroso pan, something about fitment.

hi mike long time no :hug:

Ryan be careful of the Moroso pans, guys in the FI forum have had numerous issues with warped pans and/or gaskets leaking. OEM with baffles FTW IMO.

Another option if you want cheap...

Heel Toe baffles and weld them into your own OEM pan. No fitment issues there.

The Moroso holds more oil. But I've heard certain downpipes can come into contact.

Isn't the Mugen pan just a normal pan with baffles installed?

Mugen adds baffles to an OEM pan, then re-paints it.

There are differences between the Heel Toe baffles as opposed to the Mugen baffles. I have personally owned Heel Toe baffles and loved it. However, the Mugen designed baffles are much effective. I wish somebody posted a picture of it online. UNLESS, Heel Toe did change their designs.

I've had the Mugen pan and I have the Moroso 20911 pan right now. The mugen never leaked, but I'm still trying to track down the source and seal it with the Moroso pan. They both hold about the same volume of oil.

If you plan on racing, I suggest using a pan with a kick-out to provide a larger reserve of oil. It's been suggested that high rpm's will displace a lot of oil into the engine and without any way to aid drainage back to the pan, it can aerate the oil pump. That means that it starves the engine for oil.
