Once upon a time we had problems with stuff being loose or over torqued. We brought in some high tech analyzing equipment to evaluate the situation (using washers that electronically measured the compression). The end result of the study is that there is no way you can accurately torque with an impact wrench. We went to hydraulic drive torque wrenches (mind you, some of the torques we used were upwards of 1,000 ft. lbs. and then some) and calibrated manual wrenches for the lower end torques. Problem was solved.
The other lesson learned: never used teflon coated hardware.
Just thought to share this.

I agree with the above, when I worked at a large Nuclear Complex sometimes we would use a piece of equipment called Biach Stud Tensioner. It would preload the studs to the proper load and then you would just spin the nuts on. Straight impact torque wrenches were never consisitently accurate,
