Post pics when you make the change.

Bolts of the same diameter and made from the same materials typically have the same torque spec. Check to see if the ones for the brace you're looking at have the same diameter as the ones referenced above.

TTY bolts make sense for the manufacturer and no one else really. Head studs, rod bearing cap bolts, and now even oil pan bolts are TTY. I'm old school and prefer studs with a set torque value even though I have a Snap On Techangle electronic angle torque wrench. When I did the rod bearings on 3 S65 (E9x M3 engines) I used the BE Bearings and special ARP rod bearings. Easy. No fussy angle torquing working over your head.
