Con rod bolts HELP! Over tightened..

I have a 1.8dx engine that I have rebuilt.. I have bought new con rod studs and bolts..
I have tightened the bolts to 30nm stage one. And then 90 degrees and then 90 degrees again.

When I had a read of the vw spec sheet the con rod bolts are only ment to be 90 degrees and not 180 as I have done.

Do you think the 90 degrees over tightening be too much? Or should it be ok?

HELLPPPPPP

As long are they're not stretch bolts then they should be ok
