I would say if you like the idea of an aggressive position, just slam it and work up if there's a prob. Torque wrench? Just make sure it's tight enough to not have play and loose enough to fall left and right when you hold the front up high.
I haven't ridden rode for long, but it didn't take minutes to decide I wanted to be forward and down. My mtb style has always been a bit more aggressive, less measured, so it was an easy fit. YMMV.

Either way, I guess I'll drop it a centimeter and go from there. If only I had a torque wrench myself...
