I'm bored at work, so here goes:
The TSX head you have is practically the same as the K20a2 head you (In terms of power and airflow)
so no need to use the K20a2 head
you will want to use the oil pump from the K20a2 as it is far superior in output and doesn't use a power robbing balancing shaft, also helps it rev out higher, 9000rpm is no problem for that pump (stock)
as for intake manifold, it depends on your chassis
RBC is the best and is a classic choice for a reason, i would stick to that personally as you won't have to modify (cut off) the water port using the TSX head.
but you might run into fitment problems with either Fit, EP3 should just be able to squeeze one in.
the oil pan you have is all in what chassis you're running, you might want to run a steel pan if you have low ground clearance, it's weaker, so if you hit something, it only wrecks the pan and not the bottom of the block; where an aluminum pan is stronger and might damage your block upon impact
spec a couple bucks and get a drop in baffle or have someone weld in a baffle while you have it out,
it'll be something you wish you did but didn't if you don't do it while you're building the motor.
