upper definitely helps with pedal feel. stiffens it up, u can get any brand. ams sells the lower one, im trying it out next week. upper definitely helps, might as well get both for piece of mind of not getting stuck and improved pedal feel and shifting.

A vendor on there just told me if you do the upper, there is no flex in the line. No flex in the line system would cause the slave cylinder to be overpowered and leak.

..so now im rethinking upper

I had one on my 03 and 05. Never noticed a difference till I got bored on day and drilled the inside vane of the slave cylinder bigger. Then there was a difference. Aside from that I never seen a reason to install a ss line.
