Default strut bars and tie bars

ok guys 2 questions i should be getting my 4 pcs bars in anyday now and im guessing i cant install my front strut until i do a swap because i have this huge dpfi box thats really close to the hood so is there a way for me to fix this other than mpfi swap or engine swap. #2 can someone give me the torque spec for all the bolts. its an ef hatch and im getting front tie, rear tie, front strut, c-pillar

go to a parts store and sneak a peek in a haynes manual if your too cheap to buy one. they really come in handy for torque specs.

for the rear strut bar, do not lift your car with the bolts out, or you'll have a mess. and for the lower tie bar, the car must be jacked up, and it can be a little tricky to put into place.
