Question 2008 vs 2013 Manual Question

Got a killer deal from a HD Forum member yesterday, Brawler seat in perfect condition, Service Manual and a pair of full stock exhaust pipes, plus crossover off a '08 Nightster, I didn't need the pipes but they came along with the deal.

So here's my question: the Service Manual is for 2008 Sportster Models, has there been many changes from 2008 to 2013? I'm wondering if the torque settings would still be the same from 2008 to 2013 models? Any Help in determining this would be much appreciated..

Bump.. can someone with say a 2012 or 2013 Manual give me a couple torque ranges on say the muffler or engine parts so I can check and see if they are the same in the 2008 Manual I have?
