actually tools is not a big deal! i can say sorry to homedepot! i went there ans get stuff i need after using it like (30 mins) i bring it back and return it to the store so is not really headache about tools. even u guys think im cheap or whatsoever but im sorry! lol!!
actually no matter what kit u get u still need those tool to tight the nut. but i still saying u might want to check out the Z1 kit. the kit come with the mounting bracket to the driver side already so u dont need to deal with modify the mounting bracket like what i did to my stillen kit. but honestly is not really a big deal to modify the stillen mount. just a metal saw to cut it and a drill 2 new holes. so far i dont get any leak or issue with stillen and im happy with it. this DIY for owner that want to go with stillen or already bought a stillen kit that they want to install it to driver side. theres DIY here that they need to cut the coner of oil cooler but honestly. i dont want to messed with my oil cooler. i rather to messed with my mounting bracket. good luck to u and if u live in a hot weather then u should think about having oil cooler. just go with 19-25 row if daily drive and if u track your car a lot then u might want to go with 34 row.
