i think the most important tool you need is a spring compressor, im not sure what else.

With H-Techs you dont' really need an alignment, if you want to be extra safe then get it, but you really don't need ome

Yea a spring compressor is that most important, you can rent one at any auto parts store. I rented mine at auto zone for $57 and they give it back to you when you are finished. You will also need a torque wrench.

get the alignment. Its like 60 bucks or so and will save you so much in the long run with uneven tire wear, etc... Is it like your car will blow a tire in 100 miles, no. but down the line you will see uneven tread wear and you could chew your front tires up...
