I have no idea, as I have not tried it on this car. I can only guess based on experience with other cars, and what I have heard here.
From what I read here, our clutch line does not have a restrictor pill like many other cars (forces the clutch to move slower, common on imports at least) so the size of the line is a real size. I don't know how much stretch the stock line has either. On a car with a restrictor or with a spungy line, my Evo having both, removing the restrictor pill was a big improvement and people who did braided lines said it was even better because the stiffer lines gave better control. But that doesn't mean it will be a big improvement on our cars. I have boiled the clutch fluid and I wasn't running it too hard on track but I suspect it was from bubbles from the factory (I had brake bubbles from the factory).
Someone must have done it on their car by now, it is a pretty common mod, so they will be more useful than I am. I am completely happy with my clutch as it sits now with it bled, assuming it doesn't boil again. A bigger line that allows the clutch to move faster may help with heat, in theory, as it is slipping that causes the most heat (I am assuming, as that is how it works with tires or brakes and most other stuff). Heat is the enemy. My understanding, from the import world, is that they usually limit clutch speed to protect the drivetrain. If you removed it then side stepped the clutch at 5k rpm in an Evo like I had, you were going to blow up the transfer case. So they set the weak point as the rag clutch and added the restrictor to force some slipping. Now that was an AWD turbo car so it hit hard and the tires didn't like to spin, our cars are rwd so it probably isn't as big an issue and really is only an issue if you launch it hard, don't rev match, or power shift and are side stepping the clutch. I suspect the high stretch lines that they use for most cars are also designed to absorb some of the shock, and the brake lines too. I have never heard anyone claim that, but it makes sense to me.
Braided lines have their own set of issues, people either like them or don't and will argue over whether the downsides are real or not. I like them, but you have to keep an eye on them. I have seen more braided lines burst than rubber, but have seen more rubber lines leak. I suspect the lack of give and the increased shock to them is what causes it.
But most of that is conjecture based on what I have seen and done and the results. I am no scientist nor engineer, and if someone knows more than I do then please say so. The line is overkill for the street imo but I would do it if I was in there anyways.
