PP VAQ Mounting Bolts Torque Spec

[wtperry]

Getting ready to replace the clutch in my car and having trouble finding info on the VAQ in the PP equiped cars. From what I can see there isn't any mention of it in the erwin manuals. Does anyone know the torque spec on the 4 bolts connecting the VAQ to the transmission? Do they need to be replaced like the transmission mount bolts?
