Torque settings are always (except on bicycles) specified "dry": no lube.
The few exceptions include head bolts. Antiseize, beneficial though it may be, is still a lubricant and as a result you have to adjust the torque spec DOWN by about forty percent when using antiseize. This is not universal, just a rule of thumb, and will vary by fastener and material.
