the reducers shouldn't (in theory) change the torque applied, as long as you hold the wrench securely and it twists directly on-axis with the bolts you're torquing.
the main cause of error on those torque readings is because people put an extension on the wrench and try to torque it without bracing both ends of the wrench. it puts a twisting and a lateral force on the bolt, which causes the torque readings to go crazy-- just like using a large t-handle lug wrench and only pulling on one corner of it. good way to snap a wheel stud. the proper way is to push on one end while pulling on the other so that it twists on the axis of the bolt..
hope that makes sense.. I know what I'm trying to say anyway.......
