Hello, I am just wondering is there a way to install a cartridge bottom bracket without the tool? I know i should probably buy one to install it but to be honest I am impatient and don't feel like waiting for the order to come. So can anyone please answer me if there is a way to do this.
Ez , you take the bike to a bike shop , they have the tools,
so you don't have to own one.
They will put it together for you, then you just pay them for the service.

if you do buy one, get the one you can put a torque wrench on.

How tight? , then has a number value to refer to..

1/2" drive torque wrench would have the proper torque
within the scale,
3/8 you might be pegging the beam indicator
to the end of the scale.
