You may want to check your brake pads to make sure they are correct. Wilwood has a bunch of compounds. I'm a firm believer that two sets of pads are needed. Street/autoross and road racing. I've never been thrilled with my street performance. I think you must get accustomed to them as well. Most of us drive around in highly boosted modern cars, then we jump into a car with manual racing brakes. I've just recently got mine to where I like them on the street. That took some tapered axle bearings. Going to a smaller master will add pad travel as mentioned by Chris. I woldn't want a smaller cylinder on mine. In fact, I would love to run a larger but already suffer from brake pad knock back on the race track and it would only get worse. At the end of the day Wilwood brakes are for racing not street driving.
