Default sold my kit and installed it for him (PICS)

i had a kit on my d16y8 and sold it today to a guy with a 95 dx. i want to just change him oil pans so i don't have to find one without a hole and he don't have to tap his. are all D series pans the same? i told him to buy a FMU because i don't want to sell my injectors and V-AFC because he wasn't offering enough and i want to use them for my next project, i forgot abut the fuel pump would he be okay without a new pump or should i just swap him pumps and call it good? the cool thing is i talked him into throwing in his header and cold air intake so i can be N/A. but the bad thing is he doesn't know about turbos and talked me into helping him i told him to come here and get some knowledge before we do it but he isn't too computer friendly

update
the install came out perfect, no running like ---- or strange idle or anything. lucky bastard. he is not fully understanding that the A/F guage is not that reliable but more of a ballpark figure. we test drove it about an hour ago and he is in love with it. the funny part is we started on friday night and he still hasn't told his friends that he was getting a turbo put onto his car.
here are some pics of the final outcome.



the fmu he paid $275 for bling bling biatch


looks pretty much stock from the front thanks to some flat black paint . the glare is from the winshield not the FMU

lol, he sounds like an immigrant , I would bet money the oil pans are the same. but I'm not sure, he will not need the fuel pump. try not to help him too much with the install, cause if he's using a Fmu he will ---- that ---- up so fast, and then blame you, not good.

nope they won't fit. You can however use a y7 oil pan on a y8 and vice versa.
