CAT removal is also grossly over tightened..
It's nice of them to provide all the torque specs in the service manual, yet they totally ignore those when they put the car together.

And that's how busted bolt heads end up stuck in our sockets. Then you have to leave your car on jackstands in your garage while you go to the dealer parts store and have them find a replacement while you explain that you were doing 'routine maintenance' and accidently broke something...

Bad memories of working on my friends Audi. The germans like to over tighten things as well.
