torque sequence and lb

Hey guys im puting all new gaskets on the intake system on my 88 na. The manual I own doesnt tell me the torque sequence or lb to be used for the lower in take manifold, the one that attaches to the engine. It does'nt for any of the intake components actualy but a friend i know said it was 13lb for the rest of them but didnt give reference to sequence please someone help me out, if my friend even right?

If you want to be precise, you can use the chart on page 30-19 of the S4 FSM (technical data). As for order, just do whatever seems right. Tighten each a bit, then torque. It's not going to matter unless you over-tighten them and break a bolt.
