@S-Prihadi is in the middle of this project. It’s something around 350Nm.

Read his thread on collar nut. You saw that thread, right?

I am afraid the torque wrench with the range will cost couple thousand dollars.
Just put 3 ft extension on break bar and put your weight on it.

No. Search Amazon for a Porsche center lock torque wrench. $200-$300. Performance Tool 3/4” drive.
