Default About to boost...retorque head?

Hey I'm just about to boost my built b20/vtec that I had built in the spring. Is it a good idea to retorque the head or am I just wasting my time? It was never retorqued after being broken in or anything just torqued initially. Part of me says retorque it but then again honda engines from the factory are only torqued once?

What are your opinions?

Ive seen this topic covered a bunch of times. Your going to get plenty of mixed opinions on this one.

My 2 cents... if you torqued them right the first time, no need to re-torque.
