SXR Factory Pipe Bolt torque?

[mugsy63]

Hi, Would anybody know what the 3 Headpipe bolts torque should be on a 800 sxr for the wet pipe? 22 maybe? My directions give me the torque specs for the manifold bolts torque but not the Headpipe. Thanks

If aluminum 18-22 if steel 30-35.

assuming it's the same spec as for the superjet headpipe, then FP says 30 ft-lbs.

I tried calling them earlier with no answer, I know the stock exhaust calls for 22ft lbs, and with you saying the SJ is 30, I would think the sxr would be 30 also.

ive always gone overboard 36 with some red loctite. never ever had a leak or problem loosening up.
but i have inserts in my manifold. not the crap how it comes

Called Factory Pipe tonight and all they told me was snug, I even mentioned that stock was 22 and someone suggested maybe 30 ft lbs and she said oh no, just snug them down and check them frequently. I put them at 25 and will check them frequently

Jetmaniac ships his head pipe bolt sets with a note to go 40 ft lb on the SJ
