TBH, I don't know of anyone that has done BOTH the MC/BB upgrade AND the EBC kit upgrade.  So you may not notice a difference, or the difference may be in better consistency/feel, or there may actually be better stopping distances in a consistent fashion.  That is still an unknown.  Given that, if you are still willing to explore, I will salute and cheer you on :D

That HAS happened before.  Kinks in the tubing, disconnected wiring, etc.

Turned out to be a fried plug! Is that normal for 60k miles?? I needed to upgrade them anyhow. What plugs should I go with?

Torrie recommended these
