Question Oil Pressure Booster Piston Kit

Hello,

By consciencious, I will wish to buy this kit (two pistons, two springs), for 914 2.0, which increases the oil pressure in the engine. It appears that it is sure to at least obtain 0,65 kg/cm²/1000 rpm. I specify that my engine was rebuild to new and counts from now on 1000 km and turn on very well.
The weather will start to be hotter on summer, therefore a lower viscosity. One never knows.

The engine turn on to 6500 rpm. Webcam camshaft. Lightened and balanced Flywheel. Con rods lightened and balanced. Special cylinder head. Electronic ignition. More pressure benzine, etc. Used in week-end only

What do you think about it? Useful or not?
Is these parts can produce too much pressure and do some oils leaks ??? Because mi engine is super clean without any leaks.

Underneath, is the description of the Pelican website.

"Oil Pressure Booster Piston Kit

Low oil pressure got you stressed? 914 engines are known for having low oil pressure. On an air cooled motor, having too low oil pressure could quickly lead to disaster. There are two pistons in the 914 engine case that regulate oil pressure. Replacing these pistons with these special ones results in higher oil pressure throughout the engine. Ideal for racing motors, or just heavy street use. "

Oil Pressure Booster Piston Kit, 914 1.7/1.8/2.0 (1970-76), Each at OC-PBK-001 $29.30


Waiting for help.

Thank you.
