Default Tein Monoflex/RE070's/ALK/ARB etc Baffled Sump needed on track?

Trying to slowly get the car ready for some track days next year. With the spec below what are peoples opinions on how necessary a proper baffled sump is (not just a baffle plate). The mods I have listed are only relevant to how much lateral forces they can create, causing problems or if they help reduce oil surge.

-Tein Monoflex Winding Master Coilovers
-Aggressive alignment
-Hardrace adjustable Lateral Links
-Hardrace adjustable Trailing Arms
-Hardrace engine & gearbox mounts
-ALK& uprated rear ARB and drop links
-Whiteline uprated steering rack bushing kit
-RE070's tyres
-345bhp / 370 ft/lbs

-Breather system removed and replaced with 3 port catch can
-with return to sump fitting

Ideally a true baffled sump is better, but wondering whether there are people out there doing track days with a similar spec without a baffled sump?

I've got BC racing coilovers, RE070's running around the 300bhp mark never thought of getting a sump baffle to be honest!

I probably only do 5 or 6 track-days a year though.

Hi Ricky

Have look on the KillerB website,there is few choices which you can buy

We are run Cosworth Baffled plate with normal EJ205 sump(which is smaller than yours on twin scroll)and we are done numerous track days and drag runs and without the problem,like on normal street tyres or R888

On 2.35L we are considering to buy RCM Baffled plate and get our sump to modify to the proper baffled sump,speak to Rich if he can modify your sump to the baffled

I've just got an RCM baffled sump to go on my build, a full baffled sump will offer more protection against oil surge, and if within budget a full baffled sump would be the way to go I would have thought.
