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.
