Hey guys I was thinking i might reassemble my B6 today but wondered if someone could throw me a reminder on what torque to tighten the head studs..? It'll be running NA for 3=4 months before being forced..

Do you have the digital version of the workshop technical manual? A link to it was floating around on here a short while back. It is a very valuable document and directly answers your question.
I have a copy but it is currently in my workshop at home.

The STD head bolts should be torqued to 56-60Ft lb
the ARP head Studs should be torqued to 80Ft lb
in the correct order and in 3 stages
