Arrow spark plug. how much torqe?

Just wondering how much torqe for does it take to tighten a spark plug for a 95' KA?

Or does it even matter if i use a torqe wrench or not?

The article on spark plug installation is making it sounds like im gonna get hell if i dont do it the "RIGHT WAY (THEIR WAY)"

Btw plugs i got are NGK LASER IRIDUIM.

tighten it till you think it is tight enough. not to tight or you will strip the threads.
