The tightening process for the front spindle nut can take some practice. Basically, tighten the nut with a wrench until tight and the hub won't spin easily by hand. Then, back off and re-tighten by hand. The torque spec is just past hand tight.
After a drive, if you can feel looseness by wiggling top/bottom on the wheel with it off the ground, then repeat the process and go a little tighter.
I've only had one Porsche and it seems spindle nuts take a little more torque than on other cars I've worked on to prevent any top/bottom play. For example, on my early 90's Mustang, the spec was literally achievable with your fingers and that was enough.
