Torx is not the same as Torx Plus (sometimes referred to as IP)

Torx has a more rounded shape on the star pendents, which is why they slip and cause stripped heads in the Torx Plus screws used in the N9
very interesting, I always thought the only difference between the torx plus and torx was that the torx plus had the hole in the middle.

So what size torx plus does the N9 use?
I had seen T4 and T5, but what does that translate to in the IP or TR?
