Throttle Body Torque Specs - Civic EX 2006 Coupe (solved)

Does anybody knows, for CERTAIN, which is the torque spec for the 4 throttle body screws? The reason for the question is that, I have seen so many conflictant info, that I am not sure anymore; I have searched (include in the forum) and found: 7.2, 8.47, 16, and 17 ft-lbs, all of course, "info taken from the manuals" - considering that the wrong info can lead to a broken screw or a vacuum leak, you probably know my reason to ask (I have searched in many places, but still have not found a real manual - for free)

Thank you BrotatoChip
I saw that yesterday on my research for an answer (I believe was from Erick The Car Guy). As clear as the "Title" is, it will make easier for people to find it. I was having problems with my throttle body, and I believe that one of the reasons may be that I was setting the Torque Wrench lower than it should @ 8.43 (9) ft-lbs - I saw someone even writing after I was in doubt of it that it should be done to 10ft-lbs because @ 16ft-lbs you would break some of the screws - I will fasten them again today
Thank you
