Hi Walter,

It's not an area we have felt neccessary to go. I really don't have any experience with them. But I will say.... hooking to the dipstick may result in sucking oil out of the pan. I am of the philosophy of keeping it simple. If an "upgrade" does not make a real and documented differance in performance, I don't do it.
