Default best oem upgrade?

ok so i just ordered a set of legend 2 piston calipers, i have my 40/40 prop. valve, i upgraded to steel braded lines all the way around, and i am now needing to make a selection for my brake booster and my master cylinder. i have a 13/16ths cylinder, but im not sure i wanna use that. which should i use? and which brake booster should i use? the platform is an ef hatch back 1990. i want the best braking that an OEM booster and a master cylinder will give me. any suggestions?

You can always use a 15/16 MC and booster from a non-abs DA. You can even keep your booster and use a the 15/16 MC from a Civic EX sedan. The EX MC will fit on your booster. If you go the DA route then you need both. No need to re-route brake lines on either option. Btw...I did the DA thing and swapped both.
