Product Description
Oil surge on the Subaru flat-four engine layout under hard cornering can leave the oil pick-up pipe starved of oil. This anti-surge adaptor is designed to reduce that risk on EJ-series applications.
Its castellated construction allows it to touch the base of the sump pan without restricting oil flow, acting as a cushion. This can also help prevent cracking or fracture of the brazing on the pick-up pipe, and reduces the risk of restricted oil flow if the base of the sump is damaged.
It is compatible with all OEM pick-up pipes.
