You will need the sump, oil pick up pipe and dip stick to run a twin scroll sump

Probably not steve as the twin scroll sump is narrower to allow clearence for the manifold

The sump stuff on the 2.5 engine is the same as the JDM twin scroll and can be had from the dealers for about £150

I've got a spare 2.5 sump with pick up if anyone wants it. I'm sure I can do a little off the £150 mentioned
