  SS braided lines on brakes are a great improvement for pedal feel.  With
standard rubber hoses, when you mash the pedal, the lines expand a
bit...making the connection between your foot-force and the actual hydraulic
forces at the pistons a little bit nebulous....Less brake line
expansion=better direct connection with pedal pressure to the brake pads and
the discs.

  I had them on racecars...good for a few seconds per lap on a 2 minute
laptime...Just being able to 'feel' your braking better..

  They are a little 'fussy' making all those AN connections, and you should
be really careful assembling them.  I never encountered any "creep" or
leaking in two seasons of about 30 track days per year..Motorcycles use them
almost exclusively.
