I bought mine from Dave Turner at Dave Turner Motorsports in San Diego...I can't recall the price, it was not as cheap as the Harbor Freight Impact see above, nor as expensive as I estimate the SnapOn to be.
Torque Stick: If you use a impact wrench, get a Blue Torque Stick. It allows the wheels to be torquesd to about 85 Lbs...then you take it the rest of the way with a manual torque wrench, at least I do.
Agro, don't feel badly...If all of us fessed up our dumbest P-Car mistake, yours would probably appear tame by comparison...well maybe not, but you never know, besides, who will fess up?
Next time you are going to pop the wheels off, let me know and I'll bring my portable wrench over and torque stick, and an extra jack too! You know my cell.

The Harbour freight unit is great. I also use it and it takes the torqued lug nuts off without needing to brake them off with a bar. For the money its the best tool I have ever bought. it certainly makes brake bleeding on the track a breeze...

I would think that you want to get close i.e. 90 then finish with a torque wrench. If you go with the 100, then you are over torquing and dialing back, no?
OTOH, I may be just plain wrong and not have a clue
