Default Need torque specs for engine carrier.

Reinstalling the stock exhaust and can't find the engine carrier torque specs for these four torx bolts. Having trouble with the GT3 on my All Data account. Can anyone help?

Of course you'd have it. For some reason, I was thinking if anyone has this answer, you would.

Thanks J

That's a great idea. I had to remove the Brombacher bracket and install the OEM bracket for the stock center muffler.

I'm really putting myself out there but what is m10 nuts. The torque specs I'm looking for is the 4 BOLTS that are for the engine carrier. Also to add to my confusion my bolts look exactly like the ones in Raudi's photo but a 12 point 7/16" socket fits it the best. Does anyone know of a list of general torque specs? It would be nice to have.

Thanks,
Dave

Dave - M10 means the bolt is 10mm in diameter.


Instructions state the following:
  1. Tighten four M10 Torx screws. → Tightening torque: 65 Nm (48 ftlb.)

You measure the diameter. The head is independent of the bolt diameter. Highly recommend you purchase the correct tool, in this case it looks like an etorx. Here are some examples:
