For my S5 TII's lightweight flywheel to counterweight it was around 40 ft/lbs, IIRC.

Duno if that will help you, being an FD guy... but I'd check the FSM

Yeah, I checked the fsm and couldn't find it. I have an online downloaded one. I was told around 75 ft/lbs or as tight as I can get it.

WARNING ^^^ i looked that up from K-157.. think thats for something else. i should have been more careful, i snapped a grade 8.8 bolt using those numbers. then came back to double check.

im going with 40 ft-lbs, which is within the range for M10 8.8.. referenced from TD-17 as recommened by Gadd.

80 ft-lbs is way too much.

I recently installed an Exedy carbon twin disc on a customer's car (which uses the stock cw and hardware) and it called for ~35 ft-lbs IIRC.
