Default Brake master cylinder upgrade for abs Civics

I've done a search through the current and archived topic and I couldn't find the question I was looking for. Basically, I have a 95 civic EX coupe with the 4-wheel disc abs option. I'm looking to upgrade my brake master cylinder and I just wanted to know which (if any) master cylinder would bolt up without any kind of bending or reflaring the hard lines.

Through my search I have found that the Integra RS MC and booster as well as the 91 civic ex 4-door MC bolts up to non-abs civics without bending and reflaring (correct me if I'm wrong). Since my car has abs I was wondering if one of these combo will work with my car. If not, does anyone know what combo would bolt up? Thanks for the help.

You don't need to upgrade your MC if you already have 4wheel disks. Only if you upgrade to GSR calipers, in which case you still wouldn't really need to.

Dont mess with a good thing. I still have my dinky one on due to my tendency to overtorque bolts which broke the first replacement I have. GOt a new one and a torque wrench for my next install. Hopefully next weekend.

You only need a new one if you upgrade. Right now my pedal hits the floor and its scary
