Do you have the hangers for the driver side in your kit? If not, then you need to buy the 2 hangers for the driver side muffler - you can buy it at www.v6mustangstuff.com or www.pypesexhaust.com. If you system isa cats back kit, then I assume it includes either an X or H pipe for a cross over - if not then you need that piece as well. The only other parts would be the band clamps to connect all the pipes (down tubes, mid pipes).

If you bought the FRPP dual exhaust kit, then it should have everything that you need as far as parts.

Also, what about your rear bumper? Do you have a GT rear or the V6 with the single exhaust outlet? If it is the V6 then you need to make the cut for the driver side. I did mine with the template from the Pypes web site (make sure that you print it "full size" and don't have it printing with the "make it fit" selected).

JimC covered the parts so i will offer tool advice. If no lift is available have a floor jack & 4 jack stands, a sawzall or pipe cutter. Use the spare drivers side hanger bolts to cut the threads for the left side hanger, ideally with an air ratchet. Assorted hand tools, sockets.
