929 brake upgrade

Has anyone done a 929 master cylinder upgrade? I know I need a 89-91 brake booster which I have and I just got a 929 master cylinder that fits a 88-91 929 but I see that people were using the 93 929 MC for the 3rd gen rx-7. Anyways I once saw a website that someone had it installed on a second gen and I was wondering if anyone knew the link.
Also this should be sweet with my ss brake lines and drilled and slotted rotors.

from what I have heard it gives a better pedal feel and improves stopping times. From what I can see it is larger than my 88 mc.

This to me makes no sence. A bigger master cylinder will only make to have to press harder to do the same thing a smaller master cylinder will do.

There are alot of other things to do to improve your braking besides replacing the master cylinder.
