Most good auto parts stores will let you borrow one if you're quick about it.

You need a torque wrench. Just get one...it will come in handy for all the other mods you will be doing to your car.

The factory specs for the strut tower bolts (for mounting the FSTB) is 29-40 lb/ft. Don't overtighten...it can break the studs.
