Festival old suffock strong ale

I have just started this kit, it says to add the hops after 5 days and leave them in for 5 days, does that sound OK or should I do something different, also thinking about buying a bouncer in line filter would that be a valued addition to my setup

I would personally leave the beer for another couple of days before putting them in. Most kit instructions tell you to do things a bit more quickly than they probably should.
