2.5 years from your OP and you still couldn't figure it out? A simple Google search can help. Below is the pdf file that should be the same torque spec on the WRX installation, as you need to find the mounting points to torque down the bolts/nuts.

Hey if you're going to be condescending, at least provide correct information?

The 2018 tS service manual is available now from Subaru, and it has this info along with pretty much everything else:

I don't need to be condescending for bumping a 2.5-year post you've opened and you still couldn't figure out the torque spec. You could have just gone with the previous member's advice who posted a link to torque down the specs between 35-44/lbs. Why try to go through the process again, if a member already has the same part as you?

Again, the STi Flexible Draw Stiffener is an "accessory add-on" installation, not a service part. Several WRX parts fit on the BRZ platform with the same torque specs. Use your judgment on the torque specs and installing parts.

If you don't have the correct torque spec (it's not 35-44 ft-lb), just say I don't know or at least gutentight? I'm sure the community would appreciate having the correct information out there. Google afaik didn't have this info, I'm not sure how I was supposed to figure out the spec. Well, I finally checked back with Subaru, which I should've done before bumping.

Anyway, here's the info from the service manual:
