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.
MSR Houston last weekend. I see you've been there!

On the end of the 2nd session, the pedal went to mush and I couldn't slow down enough to make it into turn 16 coming out of Gut Check so I went into pit lane. At first I thought it was driver error, but when I got into the paddock, the pedal was going to the floor. Bled the brakes in the paddock and everything was fine the rest of the weekend.

For additional content, this was really strange since I had just bled the brakes the weekend before, put 5 bottles of fluid through it so I was damn sure (so I thought) the OEM fluid was out. When I re-bled them on the track, I bled through less than 1 bottle and like I said, no issues with the brakes the rest of the weekend but they did seem to get softer as the day got hotter and 20-25 mins into the session.
