Your setting process is sound.
The lee stay will always be loose under sail, and will be tighter on shore under no load.
New shrouds stretch, so check the pin placement often.
Are you sure your diamonds are supposed to be snug? Are you inducing pre-bend in your mast? Some rigs call for slack in the diamonds to allow the mast to bend under load, flattening out the sail.
Seek advice from Tornado sailors here and elsewhere.
