I was thinking about taking out my plugs tomorrow but I was wondering, when I put them back in, do I need to torque them in?

I've got it down to fine art. When I feel a slight burning sensation in the shoulder, thats about 15 lbs. I'm such a nerd, I perfected it with a torque wrench.
I guess this is what tech's do on a slow day.
