What torque - Electronic Throttle Actuator bolts

I have the ETA (Electronic Throttle Actuator) installed, with bolds screwed in- but what Torque should I use for the four bolts holding the ETA down to the intake manifold?

I used a Allen wrench - 5 MM to attached to the aluminum intake manifold.

I've never actually bothered to torque them. I've also never had any problem with them loosening or stripping out. Typically bolts that size and thread that need to be torqued go down around 80-90 inch pounds. If you're not comfortable tightening them by feel, you will do fine at those settings.
