Exactly. I agree it's fun throwing go-fast bits on your car, but unless you have data showing a problem (presumably low oil pressure in certain situations) and can verify that the baffle actually helped you might be burning cash for no reason.
Granted, there are some fairly consistent recommended parts for street (camber bolts, better tires) and track (oil cooler (with a minority saying they're not needed)) that I would be comfortable putting on my car (and have in fact done so) solely based on the forums' combined wisdom. AFAIK an oil pan baffle for the FA20 is not a strong recommendation and should be installed only if you actually have a problem.
