Question brake stiffness

Anyone is using the master cylinder brace by Perrin? Does it significantly improve the pedal feel? To me the OE brakes and pedal is a bit soft and have to step on it pretty hard all the time. Is that the best way to solve the problem?

I have heard it changed pedal feel.

Might want to upgrade your Brake Lines, Pads, and Rotors if you are looking to beef up your brakes a little.

I did mine and loved how it turned out.

It is designed to remove movement out of the master. So it stiffeners up the mounting a little and therefore makes the pedal feel a little better. It does not take out a spongey feeling though really. Also, more for people that would be doing very hard braking such as on the track
