I searched...and came up with nothing. Do I use the same torque specs as an s14 SR? 9.3-10.8 Nm then 21-26 Nm? Tighten bolts from the inside out?

uhh, as in the bolts that hold the rail to the intake manifold? just hand tighten with a 1/4 and dont go crazy

alright but the bolts are getting pretty tight cause the big rubber o-rings that sit in the manifold are pressing against the injectors. I just dont want to shear a bolt...

Im sure using the S14 specs wont hurt anything

so stop turning? the injectors should sit tight in the rubber gaskets, otherwise you'd have a boost leak. Are you using the black plastic spacers that go under the rail between the manifold?
