Techna Fit or stock brake lines?

Hi guys, I should have asked this before, but I bought techna fit brake lines and want to know if it's worth to install it. Does anyone have it installed? What´s the basic difference to the stock?

i have them, they feel a lot firmer when you're braking under load. i recommend it! normal brake lines expands and contracts a lot

i just installed some, love it. they "feel" good. plus peace of mind that the lines arent expanding, consistent brake feel.

Why are you wondering if they're worth installing if you already BOUGHT them?

Because it was almost a gift when I bought my brake pads. If the stock are better I won't install it.

I have the techna fit ss lines and I didn't really notice any difference. I hadn't done any before and after on a road course, but I did with autox. Nothing really noticeable, but maybe if I was testing the difference between the two on race pads at the end of a high speed straight, then maybe I would be saying how much better the ss lines were, idk.

One thing I was always wondering is if the ss line actually has a similar inner diameter because they don't seem to look the same outer diameter wise. Its good insurance if your racing your evo and doing frequent track. For dd/ and even autox I would probably stick with oem lines imo.

I have SS lines as well, no noticeable difference through DD, I just got a great deal on them when I bought my pads and fluids so just said **** it and replaced the stock lines.
