Steeda UDP - DIY or Shop?
I'm getting some Steeda UDP's soon; however I don't really have any shop tools. Would I be better off getting these installed at a shop?
What should I expect to pay to get this done, vs. buying the necessary tools?

Do you have a garage? Plan on doing more DIY stuff? If so, get yourself a compressor, pneumatic impact, impact set, and a torque wrench. It'll definitely cost you more than having a shop do it, but you'll save money in the long run, plus learn a few things. If you don't plan on doing much more yourself, then just go to a shop.
BTW, if you buy a compressor, you'll need one that goes over 135 ft/lbs, because that's what it takes to remove the crank bolt.

I had a Mustang shop install mine and they charged my $90. I wasn't able to remove the crank bolt with my compressor so I ended up just taking it in. There is another way of getting the bolt off but because I think they are completely ridiculous and dangerous I'm not even going to mention it
