When you get your exhaust, it will have the instructions which has a list of what tools you will need. I'm not at home, but I did mine two weeks ago. It's easy stuff. You will also need a torque wrench to tighten the bolts to a specific rating.

You might also want something to lubricate the bolts to make them easier to take off if you don't have an impact wrench.

All you need is a wrench set. I dont remember the exact size, think it was either a 10 or an 11.

As for the bolts, use a breaker bar and they come off like nothing.

The main tool you're going to want is a computer to place your order for the STILLEN exhaust...
