im putting arp's on my turbo d15b jdm should i torque to factory 53 foot lbs or more?

 

u should of received a tq spec when u bought the studs

 

maybe thats true but i didnt so does anyone know if its more or the same as stock?

 

i would keep it at stock torque, you dont want to strip the block.

 

call arp and ask

 

53ft lbs with moly lube, 58ft lbs if your using regular motor oil

Where did you get those numbers?

Unless ARP redesigned the stud in the last 2 years, I thought it was 60 lb-ft with moly lube and 70 lb-ft with engine oil.

 

I torqued ours to 70ftlbs with the moly lube and the HG held 35psi

 

okay.....[freak] oem torque.......honda performance recommends that u should torque at 65 to 70 lbs.......take my word for it aites......arp head studs can hold garanteed if my stock can hold 68 lbs
