The thing is...I don't trust myself with power tools. And I don't wanna fuck up the only pan I got...rather buy one thats already done and that leaves me the option to take it back to stock in the future
go on a tapping frenzy :run:

I assume this is for a b-series so here you go:
Drill the hole that can accomodate a -10 AN male weld fitting (thread size is 7/8" so drill accordingly to that size) in the highest point of the oil pan without protruding any of the oil pan bolts. Also you want the straightest line possible between the turbo oil drain and the male weld fitting. You get a 1/2" to -10 straight AN adapter to connect to the turbo. You will need a 45 hose end (on the turbo) and a straight hose end (for the oil pan) both in -10 AN sizings. Buy a foot of -10 AN braided hose. Cut accordingly (use masking tape on the hose ends to prevent the braids to fray) and minimize on the slack. The key to a healthy oil return line is keep the pathway for the oil straight as possible to prevent as much as areating in the oil. Gravity with minimal psi on the drain side is the only way for the oil to get down to the pan. If you give a convoluted path for the oil, you will experience backpedaling and buildup of the oil to the turbo cartridge..which will definitely lead to turbo failure. If you have any other questions, please let me know.
And besides, getting info from Superhonda is like taking your car to Walmart for an engine swap.
