Default any thoughts/experiences with larger bore clutch MC

i went with a crv tranny in my awd ek and i have had lots of issues with 2nd gear synchros... what appears to be happening is the clutch is not disengaging "fast" enough... thus, forcing the synchros to do more work slowing the gear than they can handle... well, i have sent the 1-2 gear set to liberty to be face plated, but im wondering if anyone has used a larger bore clutch master cylinder to give a "faster" stroke to the slave cylinder...

for those that dont know, the crv tranny is basically an h/f transmission with a bseries bell housing with cable shift...

"Comparing our QMC to a stock clutch master cylinder, we use a 21mm piston which moves the same volume of fluid as the stock 15.8mm piston in a much shorter motion. "

We have been looking at the omni master.

Is the throw of it shorter? or would you have to limit it with a pedal stop?

The throw is shorter on the Quicklutch. According to the specs, it's 45% shorter.
