Glenn,

	No direct experience, but I believe they are a good idea.  I had 
a friend with a Miata that had an accusump.  It was curious to turn the 
key, and before the engine started, the oil pressure rose up to almost 
running pressure.  You just _know_ that has to be good for the engine.  I 
would like to use both though.  I would have an accusump for startup, and 
a second accumulator with a flow control, so that after shut down, the 
oil gets fed through the turbo bearings for a couple minutes.
