I agree with what's been said here. I think you'll get the best improvement from the stainless lines. I would bump up the brake fluid to 660 as well. I cannot speak to the 10/8 combo as I've never run it, but the 12/10 combo gives you unbelievable stopping power and will give you some more pad life.

I don't have cooling and I haven't had any fade issues with the brakes, but usually, I cook my tires before I get to brake fade. So I will defer to others on whether you absolutely have to install the cooling kit at this point.
I switched from the Stillen 2" hose to a 3" hose. What a PITA that was. But it works.

Oh I definitely don't doubt it. I think I tried routing a custom kit for a bit and that helped, but I ended up removing it since the tracks where I went to at the time (H2R and MSRH) Arent heavy on the brakes, and then some corners don't require brakes with the aero.

I did have an idea for making some GT3-R style ducting for my useless side vents, but I already have too many projects.
