So the car is stuck at the gf's with a hoorin noisy exahust now and waiting till wednesday to recieve the parts. Only problem is... I dont have any tools or anything that i need where the car is and i'm not too keen on driving it. So new clamps and gaskets and just tighten it basically?

I would suggest having someone there to help you hold it all in place while you tighten it as it can be fiddly on your own
