The only way to increase braking force is to get a SMALLER, not larger m/c.
If you get a larger one, the required pedal pressure to produce the same
braking force will increase. A larger m/c will also produce less feel and
make modulating the brakes harder. The best way to get better brakes is to
replace the pads with performance pads or go to a larger braking system like
the GT6. There is also aftermarket stuff, but we're talking serious money.
