fitting vf35 to Wrx 03?

Managed to source a vf35 and sti pink injectors etc for my Wrx 2003. And now just trying to sort out everything I need for my mechanic to fit this to my car ready for the re-map. So far on my list I have down pipe gasket and up pipe gasket plus 6 new studs, Will all the other pipes fit straight on or do I need a different size oil feed pipe etc? and is there anything else I should get to be on the safe side for fitting the turbo/injectors???

It would be worth getting a walbro 255 fuel pump too:

Lateral Performance Ltd| Home | Fuel System | Fuel Pumps | Walbro 255lt fuel pump kit for '01 > New Age

Everything else should fit straight on.

Makes for a very nice car when mapped

I found a braided oil feed pipe made reassembly a lot easier.
I'd check the size of oil feed banjo hole on top of the turbo, I found my 03 WRX already had a small diameter hole that was fine for the VF35.
A pump like Duncan says.
Presuming you'll also have a sports cat or decat, the std turbo heat shield won't fit and will need triming.
