Steering Wheel Torque ??

I'm about to replace my steering wheel with my new performance wheel. Does anyone know the recommended torque for the 16mm bolt in the center? Is there a list of various torque values for other components on the car?

If you use a 16mm socket is about 63nm.(46 ft/lbs) If it's a 17mm socket you're using is 80nm (59 ft/lbs)

Thanks.

(No don't use a 17mm socket! Yes I know the 16mm ones are harder to find...)

The 17mm is for other bolts on other models...
