What do you know about dry sumps? Hopefully after this run down a whole lot more as Andre runs through this Ross Performance Parts dry sump and Mazworx/ATI damper setup for the SR20VET endurace build. Covered are some of the major advantages of a dry sump setup when compared to a wet sump and we'll dive into some detail on the physical setup and how the reservoir manages to separate oil from air to reduce windage losses too.

As with anything, there are also some downsides to dry sump setups, and hopefully this [TECH TALK] will give you the knowledge you need in order to make an educated decision on the use of one, or not, for your own application.
