You'll need a jack, jack stands, set of sockets/ratchet, and a can of liquid wrench. Depending upon how rusted up your bolts are you might need an impact wrench. I installed an invidia a few weeks ago and the bolts were so seized up that an impact wrench wouldn't break them loose along with liquid wrench. I ended up having to cut the bolts, but hopefully yours won't be too bad.

And I've decided that PB Blaster is even better than Liquid Wrench.
Consider buying a used Invidia so you won't loose too much of your money when you decide you can't take the drone any longer (like I did).

Pb Blaster ftw, works so much faster than liquid wrench.
you might want to put some anti-seize on the exhaust bolt, they get hot and cool off everytime you drive the car, most of the time they are the one that seized one.
but for the tough job, silicon spray, torch, 5 foot breaker bar, 400lb impact gun and BFH will do
