300 ft/lbs of torque not needed.

I'd like to thank the Porsche shop in North New Jersey that felt it was necessary
to put my wheel nuts on with something like 300 ft/lbs of torque.
I've always wanted to curl my 911 and now I have a good spot to attach a bar
that I can pull up on with all my might without fear of it coming loose.
I've never found it necessary to take my wheel nuts off and had been
contemplating welding them on but this is much better.

Clearly your shop does superior work!
Most shops do have the expertise to set the impact wrench to the end of the range and let it fly.

I'm sure if you can handle this detail so well that the other engine work you perform will be just as good!
