Default O2 sensor torque..

Getting ready to install Kooks on an 06. Just wondering what torque to put on O2 sensors when re-installing or just snug them down? When I installed LTs on my C5, I just snugged the O2 sensors without worrying about the torque. Thought I'd check this time and do it right!

HRDTOP00 Let me start by saying we here at Kooks thanks you for your Business. As for the 02 Sensors make sure you use a antisieze on the threads of the 02 sensor before reinstall meant back into the 02 Bung. Then all you have to do is tighten it up until it is completely seated then a quarter of a turn more. That should be more then sufficient.
