+1 on the torque spec recommendation. Few of my bolts aren’t torqued to spec because of how sketchy it felt to keep tighteningWe have a 2020 Ecoboost Convert Prem. Installed the Ford Performance Strut Tower Brace Kit (note in the instructions it states "If your car is factory equipped with a steel cowl extension it is the same as Ford Performance steel cowl extension. Removal is not necessary." this is correct as I measured them both with calipers") seems to maybe, to have taken som flex out. Also on this site severial have had problems with shearing off the strut bolts and do not recomend torqueing to the factory spec of 41 lb.ft (55 Nm) IIRC they went with 35 lb.ft (47.45 Nm) if you shold shear them there are repairs on the site just search.
PS I also installed jacking rails which may have helped stiffen the ride.
