Default 997.2 Exhaust Install

So, I was going to just do the Gundo + Center Bypass... however, I came across a deal for a Tubi Style system that I couldnt pass up.

Fast forward to today and I am in the garage installing the beast.


I have done a few searches, but couldnt find the torque specs for the exhaust nuts.

I do a search, and all I keep getting are the HP/TRQ gains. Not what I want.


Any sites with torque specs? or should I go with the german torque specs.... "gutentite"?

Think I found my answer... on this thread..

Can anyone concur to the statement:

"all exhaust nuts get tightened to ONLY 15 ft/lbs (this is pretty much just past hand tight, a little play is required on all exhaust bolts as if you tighten them too much it will cause a vibration in the car at idle, if you notice a vibration at idle, check these nuts... "

Just a guess here. I tend to go light on them and just check to make sure there are no exhaust leaks after a while.

I've also heard of vibration because they are not tight enough.
