Buy a basic set of tools. Then, when you get stuck working on you Evo, stop, clean up, go to the store and buy the tool you need to continue. That way you don't end up with a lot of tools you will never use.

Lucky for me i work in a huge shop, ive been buying tools for the past 13 years :0
Ive aquired some very nice stuff AND snap-on credit LOL
Snap on gives credit to anyone! When i started i was 17 and they gave me 10k in credit no interest, just the high snap on prices lol.
I cant tell you what ive paid for my snap on tools and box, BUT ill say this it gets replaced The day it breaks and all tools have a lifetime warrenty. Plus i love My toco Wagon.

Some of my best tools finds came from when I bicycled to work. I was continually finding tools in the street gutter. I never had the money to buy Snap-on on a regular basis but they were my favorite finds.
