Default manual vis power brakes

I have not had power brakes in my car since my big block 69 Camaro in 1976. I have noticed a lot of the pro-touring cars have gone without power assisted brakes and stayed with manual. My build is below and I plan on a few auto crosses and a road race event a year and would like your thoughts. Thanks

Just some more info, I will be looking for the right master cylinder that will go with the C4/5 brakes and rotors. I have the original brake pedal set up so any help will work. I came across this thread which was very helpful but still could use some advise, it looks like a 7/8 bore would be what I need. In the below thread it talks about 100lbs pressure not sure how to correlate that into feel. Many thanks

I prefer the simplicity and pedal feel that manual systems deliver. I'm running Wilwood 7/8" with C5 calipers.

Call Tobin @ Kore3.com he'll keep it simple and deliver satisfaction.
