SS lines will MOST CERTAINLY help with your pedal feel. Surprised that Turner would tell you not to bother. You might experience fade which is a different issue but lines will definitely help your pedal feel

When I brought up SS lines with him, he said BMW would not ship an M car with mediocre lines. I was surprised with that comment as well since I probably would have bought some from him if he said I would benefit from them (a naive approach perhaps, but he seems like a trustworthy guy). Maybe he thought I was a beginner and wouldn't use the brakes that much to benefit from the lines. Lines are relatively inexpensive, so I might just do them anyway.
Yes, fade is mainly a function of pad material, thermal capacity of the rotor, and convective brake cooling.
