Does anyone have a link with lots of torque specs for our cars? Preferably one with the N62 engine. Thanks!

Want more torque..... get a Quaife LSD.... it is not just for cornering also push the car like a double torque.

Few of us with V8 engines have it. IMO the best MOD of all.

Proper torque application on wheels prevents warping of rotors.

Rizbel, i'm looking for valve cover gasket torque and the actuator for the variable valve timing (the big solenoid that bolts to the head).
