Yes and yes. I don't have the part number but you could call Shiv at Vishnu tuning and ask him. He will tell ya. Also, you could call Tom at Ludespeed and he could tell you to.

The AVO kit you just got is designed to run with stock spark plugs , one heat range cooler would not hurt if you are replacing them. The oil catch can is easy to hook up, it sits in-line with the main crank case vent and will catch any extra oil blown through. Not needed with the low boost the AVO kit puts out , but not a bad idea. Tom at Ludespeed is out of buisness until at least march and is not returning calls/emails as far as I know. We sell the AVO kit here and can help with any install questions.

Just to note that colder spark plugs are based on how much more horsepower you plan on running. It doesn't really have to do with what type of Turbo kit it is.
So if you plan on running 7 PSI I would definitely recommend colder plugs, at 5PSI that is about the limit of the stock NGK plugs. Though Champios will probably want to be replaced sooner then you think. not exactly the greatest plug in the world.
Need any help with installs there are plenty of people on the boards that can help you out. I have personally installed 6 Turbo kits on RS, ranging in every year from 98 to 2002, auto or manual. So if you need some help shoot away.

Ohh..I know...I read that it may be better to buy a WRX oil pan and tap it for the oil return. Any weight to that? Also..on a stock WRX where is the oil return run?

Tom includes a pre-tapped pan with the Ludespeed kits. See what he would want for it by itself. Might come out a little more expensive, but very simple.

Tom, is in the process of revamping the business. That is all I know, what his plans are I don't know as of yet.
Tats,
I live in San Jose, California. So I am little far away from you. Though I do travel to New England a few times a year to visit family and what not.
