Default Scavenge pump recommendations

Looking to get a scavenge pump and wondering what should I get and stay away from. Ive seen cheap ones that have a duty cycle of about 30 mins of continuous runtime. My oil drain isn't horrible but has slight bends that do hinder flow above 5psi boost and results in oil coming out the exhaust and trace amounts going into the coldside piping.And I don't run a oil feed restrictor currently since its not a bb turbo.

I do like cruising my car in the summer to and from the track so I don't want to take chances of a pump failure on a hot summer day.Thanks

If you'd taken 30 seconds to search, you'd see most use Turbowerx pumps.

I did do a search and see a few videos and threads about the turbowerx pumps of gears coming loose and not lasting a long time.And I was asking about daily driver useage how they fair.

I've been running my Tilton for a long time. Works great.
I've been planning on going with the Turbowerx pump as soon as this dies or any signs of wear. Still going strong.

Twin 66/65's with a HP/HF Melling oil pump, no restrictors like yours.

Use gravity

But ya what they recommended works. I tried a cheap knockoff once and it lasted less than a year. I would buy a brand name and be done with it.
