Ive got a guy that will take your car and build a set of custom pads, rotors, and calipers tuned exactly to your car, and would only be a fraction of the price of ABS at about $10,000 or so.

I disagree, the point of manual brakes is to give the driver more feedback while requiring more input fromt he driver. I think it could make enough difference to side step ABS.
My biggest concern for you Mario, I see you as a 99% street guy. I'd put power brakes on any car that is a more dedicated street warrior vs. race car. I never liked manual brakes all that much around town. They are great at higher speeds or once you have some heat in the pads. They just require to much leg around town.
Personally, I'd try them out without ABS unless you plan on road racing or switch to a steel rotor. Unless you just want to
