I think for my purposes 80 ft/lb would be just fine, so going 101 is really over-torqued a bit.
As F87source mentioned, you don't really have "your purposes". There is a spec for the bolt and that's it, really. There is no advantage to undertightening it. It's not like an aluminum drain pan bolt or something easily damaged. Most dealers probably hit it with an absolute ton of torque.
