Default oil pumps and sumps

is its easy enough like most cars and would it be benificial to upgrade the oil pump and fit and oil cooler for engine protection, i know 300 bhp isnt much of a target but any thing that that will give me better engine protection and running
ive nearly got all the basics now before i turn up the boost and get it mapped just looking for extra things the add to make it run more smoothly.

also i was talking to a guy yesterday and he ws saying that the later engines had baffles in the sump to stop oil starvation when cornering, what models had this and is it possible to fit this to my 96 facelift

dont know any later models had baffled sump standard,hawkeye time attack car had one added but was a cosworth and was aftermarket.the standard pump is good,gets a bad rep as the pressure relief valve is crap,the "uprated" pumps have just got different relief valves but anything that helps is good
