Pics part 2

In the 2nd to last photo I'm holding the connector showing it's back side you can't see. The grey part slides up towards the wires to unlock it.
The last photo just shows the tools needed and used. A 10mm and a flat blade screw driver. It's not exactly 10mm I know but I work for Toyota so my tools are metric.

I've never posted images to a forum before
1. save the image to your local machine.
2. create a post and use "go advanced" feature.
3. click the paperclip -> choose file -> upload.

looks like you figured it out...

Does anyone happen to have the torque specs for the throttle body bolts? I am the king of over tightening.

I did ask this question in another thread. Have searched all over and cannot find them.

Appreciate any responses.

Google search for torque spec on 10mm bolt says 15-22ftlbs but that seems excessive to me. They are not very tight from the factory.
I'd say just snugged + a little (9ftlbs?)

Had mine on the car for over a week now and I honestly can't tell a difference. Tried all drive modes, did a 1/2 mile race and it seems more of a placebo effect. Tempted to switch back to see if anything changes.

I challenge thee for the crown. I snapped one off on another car before . . . luckily managed to use a reverse drill bit and get it out without taking everything apart. Got mocked because I'm an engineer (but not THAT kind of engineer).

But yeah, 89 in-lbs.
