banjo bolts and stoppies

i recently put ss lines on my f4i and broke a banjo bolt that came with the galfer lines. i just used the stock banjo bolts instead with the ss lines. i noticed afterwards that the hole(where the fluid enters the bolt) was about 1/3 the size on the galfer bolts. If i got another bolt and put them on instead of stock would it give me more feel, power, both, or not much diff. also i was thinkin about tryin it for the rear line by the caliper. If anyone has messed with this stuff and knows what it will do help me out. i am trying to get some distance on my stoppies, and i want to get the most out of the f4i front end and brakes. thanks.

No Wont help a bit....there is not much fluid displaced when your on and off the brake so its not like the smaller diameter banjo is restricting the flow of fluid. I mean look how far your front brake piston goes in when you hit the brake (barely any) and the initial travel is actually pumping a small amount of fluid back to your reservoir, its only until your piston passes the scavenger port hole that the master starts to even pressurize the system. I would say less that 1 cc of fluid is displaced between the brakes being off and being totaly locked up.
