just wondering because I'm thinking about changing my brake fluid lines and upgrading to a better brake fluid. Is this mod worth it?

It's worth it in my opinion. I got the Goodridge SS brake lines. Like redmaxpa007 said, you just get a firmer pedal feel, so don't be expecting to be stopping on a dime or anything like that.

It's worth it. The Stillen lines are actually Goodridge ones. If you drive hard, you'll get the firmer pedal. Changing the fluid to a high temp fluid reduces boiling off the fluid, which leads to air in the system and a spongy pedal.

most people tend to neglect changing their brake fluid every 2/3 yrs / 24/36k miles so that alone is an upgrade :D
