I would NOT recommend putting angle on the bolt again. I would look up a chart for a sensible torque value based on the size of the thread and location used.
Attached a torque value file from a member here

1st line below is what I can get from the internet as well as ECS tunning DIY
2nd line below is what the PDF says on page 7 about M12 thread bolt

Front control arm to sub frame = 68Nm + 90 degree
PDF saying this Hex bolt with washer 31106763928 (M12X1.5X115-8.8) = 87Nm?

Rear lower control arm to knuckle/sub frame = 165Nm
PDF saying this Eccentric Bolt 33306784983 (M14X1,5X95-10.9 bolt) = 200Nm?

Also, all those bolt threads M8 M10 M12 M14 that Titium shows in the below thread doesn't have a 8.8 or 10.9 or 12.9 value, may I ask how to interpret the table there?
