Upgrade SRAM DB8 Brakes? Or install new brakes without swapping tubes?

[NVRider]

What can I do to upgrade my DB8's?

Or can i install some different levers and calipers without having to re-route the tubes (assuming they are also mineral oil?)

What do y'all suggest? Help a noob out.

I've swapped the levers for Shimano M6100, keep the same hoses but use Shimano barb and olive for the levers, mineral oil doesn't seem specific, I bled the levers using Magura mineral oil that I had from KTM motocross bike.
This swap is without doubt the most powerful brake I have used.

SRAM advise Maxima oil in DB8 and Maven brakes.

Yes, I'm sure they do but I've found it makes no difference, I've used the Magura mineral oil for years regardless of what mineral oil is already in the system.

Yes oil is expensive
