I stops the front end flexing when cornering as it adds strength between the two suspension mounts :)

How important is to tighten the bolts at 25nm?
Is it a problem if they are tightened more than that?
I'm asking because I dont have a torque wrench... and I'm not sure if it's ok to tighten them with the "as hard as I can" method :roll:
