Hello gentlemen,
Can anyone tell me if the two different styles of windage trays actually make any significant difference?
Solid tray - S13 blacktop, S15 SR, SR20VE (FWD shape).

Louvered tray - S13 redtop, S14 SR, FWD SR's.

I have a solid tray from a blacktop, but I am concerned that it may cause starvation at the bottom on the SR20VE, since the VVL pumps a lot more oil. At the same time, the SR20VE also uses a solid tray and so does the S15 SR, which were the latest SR's to be released, and thus I assume also the most 'advanced.'
That is why I am curious if there is any advantage to the solid tray vs. the louvered one, or vice versa.
Should I get the louvered tray, just to be safe?
Thanks ahead for any information.
