Default APR Snub Mount - torque specs?

I've just been reading through the installation instructions for the APR snub mount. Does anyone own a B6 Service Manual? I'm less than excited about the instructions that read:

"Tighten the three 6mm allen head screws"
"...and tighten the four 13mm receiver nuts"
"Ensure all Bolts and Nuts are properly tightened."

http://www.goapr.com/Audi/support/b6_snub_mount.pdf

That's great common sense advice, but we're talking about a piece of German engineering. Every single bolt on this car has a torque spec. My bike ('95 Honda VFR750) is the same way. Every bolt has a torque spec. I was lucky enough to find the Honda Service Manual for my bike in PDF format (what a bit of scanning work that had to be!). I'm told that the Bentley CD Service and Repair Manual might have the numbers I'm looking for, but I haven't got one yet.

So, does anyone have the torque specs for the bolts in steps 7 and 9?<ul><li><a href="http://www.goapr.com/Audi/support/b6_snub_mount.pdf">APR's B6 snub mount instructions</a></li></ul>

I found it annoying that they didn't tell you which way to position the mount on the arm.

Default From Bentleys...

I found these torque specs in the engine removal section...

Engine mount to subframe = 25
Engine support to engine mount = 25

Thank you for checking! I have one question though... Is that 25 ft-lbs, or 25 N-m? Being a European car, I would assume it's N-m. But I don't know the source of the Bentley CD, so I'm not positive.
