M Performance titanium tips tightening torque?

BimmerViking · 10-12-2019, 05:18 PM

Is there a recommended tightening torque for the titanium tips? Or is it OK to just go by feel and maybe use loctite?
Got my MPE installed at my dealer today. Super thrilled but looks like I need to make some minor adjustments to the tips.

I consulted with the German's and they suggested a torque setting of gutentite. Might need to run that through google translate.

Mine were torqued to gutentite and I’ve never had an issue. No loctite was needed. Make sure you calibrate gutentite to Nm

Thanks! So just to be clear: schweintite then back it off a little? And no schraubensicherung. Got it
