As an application for a stock, 4 cylinder engine.....it's a waste of money, and oil. It's nothing but corporate hype designed to separate the uninformed from their hard-earned money. If you used your vehicle for nothing but high-speed, high rev racing, it might be a different story. But for street application....nah!

well if you want the extra cooling and more oil than ya it will work just fine..... and oil pan is just metal...... it just holds oil... and the aluminum will help cool the oil alittle beter than steel oil pan...

You wont see much difference, but it does keep your oil cooler. Only spend the money if thats the last mod left. I had a steel pan til a rod went thru it. I got a y8 pan but didnt see a big change.
