triple squares are a must have. Don't try to use allens for those or your will strip them out. My advise is to get a basic set and add on as you need to. The way to justify the tools is just get a quote from a local shop on how much it costs to do a job. Say to your self "ouchy" them go buy your tools knowing your saving a boat load of cash. For instance I quoted getting the back end off my car painted. The quote came out for more than it costed to buy a 20 gallon compressor, a nice HVLP spray gun and all the paint needed. I sprayed the car myself and it looks darn nice. Another example would be to quote a couple of timing belt changes and tensionings. That quickly justifies spending $$ on a P9201 tool.

just my $.02 worth.

and it works when you are married too!!!
