Cherry Bomb Cap question

I am getting ready to build a Cherry Bomb but wanted to get a little advice on some of the capacitors.

First I would like to know if it would make a difference to use the 25uf caps instead of the 22uf. I was able to find some of the 25's but would like to know if it would make a noticeable difference. Better or worse.

Second there is another schematic that looks to be a copy of the original that uses a 6.4uf instead of the 10uf for C5 and a 25uf instead of the 10uf in the C9 position. What would be the difference and is there any opinions on what would sound better or closer to the original.

Thanks,
Mike

The 25uF caps will be fine. Can't answer the second question.
