An oil cooler is always a good idea for track and drifting. Good luck.
You can search, oil pump shim, or oil regulator shim or oil relief valve shim for more info.

roger that, hadn't heard of that before but i'll keep it in mind. Going to try the oil cooler out first and see how it goes, next event isn't until march so I have a little bit of time to fix what needs to be fixed and test everything in due time. I definitely appreciate the help and info
