Oil Flow / Sump
For Porsche 944/968
The R-9096 Oil Feed Adapter is a unit that fits in the existing footprint of the oil filter and feeds clean, unrestricted oil to oil accumulator setups. This additional oil feed helps prevent oil starvation that is common in 994 / 968 race-built engines. This additional oil feed helps ensure proper lubrication and contributes to engine longevity. This unit can also be used to feed additional oil coolers to lower the engine's operating temperature.

Engine Tuning Oil Flow & Sump Parts – Precision Lubrication for Peak Porsche Performance
Your Porsche’s oil flow and sump system are the lifeblood of its engine — responsible for ensuring proper lubrication, cooling, and oil pressure during both everyday driving and high-performance conditions. When upgrading for tuning or racing, optimising your oil flow system is crucial to prevent oil starvation, maintain stable temperatures, and ensure long-term engine durability.
At Design911, we offer a range of precision-engineered oil flow and sump components designed to enhance engine reliability and performance under demanding conditions. Our collection includes baffled sumps, oil pickup pipes, flow restrictors, scavenge pumps, fittings, and gaskets — all made from high-grade, heat-resistant materials to withstand extreme pressures and temperatures.
These high-quality components are ideal for performance tuning, engine rebuilds, and track-focused upgrades, ensuring your Porsche maintains optimal lubrication even during aggressive cornering or sustained high RPM use.
What Do Oil Flow & Sump Parts Do?
The oil flow and sump system keeps the engine’s moving parts properly lubricated, reducing friction and dissipating heat.
Core Functions:
- Collects
and stores engine oil for continuous circulation.
- Maintains
consistent oil pressure across all engine components.
- Prevents
oil starvation during acceleration, braking, and cornering.
- Aids
in temperature control and heat dissipation.
- Ensures reliable lubrication for performance and longevity.
In tuned or track-driven engines, even a small improvement in oil control can make a major difference in performance and durability.
Why Do Oil Flow & Sump Components Fail?
Extreme heat, high RPM, and aggressive driving can stress oil flow systems beyond their limits. Over time, even precision-built components degrade due to oil contamination and thermal fatigue.
Common Causes of Failure Include:
- Cracked
or warped sump pans from impact or heat cycling.
- Worn
oil seals and gaskets causing leaks and pressure loss.
- Clogged
oil passages or pickups restricting flow.
- Oil
foaming or starvation under high lateral G-forces.
- Corrosion from moisture or degraded oil.
Symptoms of a failing sump or oil system include oil leaks, pressure fluctuations, engine noise, or reduced lubrication under load. Addressing these issues early prevents catastrophic engine damage.
Why Replace or Upgrade with Precision-Engineered Components?
Replacing or upgrading your Porsche’s oil flow and sump components ensures optimal lubrication and performance — especially when increasing power output or track-driving.
Key Benefits:
- Prevents oil starvation and pressure loss.
