the way i'm setting mine up is with a T fitting. which can be found here http://www.turbo-performance.com/Pro...l-linekits.htm. basically just branching off from where the sensor is.

No need to remove the oil pan. You can buy a fitting from Tunertoys. https://www.homemadeturbo.com/forum/...;threadid=6138

BTW I am the guy you bought the parts from on Honda-Tech(Oil pan, main relay). Looks like it should be there tommorrow.

The ones near the end? I don't see why you would have a problem. Jack the car up as high as you can get it and see if you can get in there. Mine was pretty wide open, but my exhaust wasn't in the way.

if your under the car its in the to right corner a ratchet wont fit in there, uness im doing the wrong bolts but im pretty sure its the right one. i might just have to drill my oil pan while its still installed.
