Answering my own question, just in case anyone is interested...
These specs are the stock Porsche specs.

M10 Bolt - 48 ft/lbs - Front Sway Bar to Suspension Subframe
M10 Bolt - 48 ft/lbs - Front Sway Bar to Sway Bar End Link
M12 Bolt - 63 ft/lbs - Front Sway Bar End Link to Wheel Upright (pinchbolt)

M8 Bolt - 17 ft/lbs - Rear Sway Bar to Suspension Subframe
M10 Bolt - 48 ft/lbs - Rear Sway Bar to Sway Bar End Link
M12 Bolt - 63 ft/lbs - Rear Sway Bar End Link to Wheel Upright (pinchbolt)

FYI for the stock drop links there is a 3 step torque procedure for the drop link where it mates to the sway bar.

#1 - 37 ft/lbs
#2 - Loosen by 90 Degrees
#3 - Tighten to 48 ft/lbs
