Wet vs dry torque values are different. Wet is usually 10-20% less torque, some people say up to 40%. If you wanna be picky, so are slightly dirty bolts or threads (including skin oil). Even never used vs once used torque values are technically slightly different due to the way threads of nuts and bolts bite into each other when torqued.
