Hi,

I suggest you try a split-bore (3/4" & 15/16") 944 master cylinder and perhaps that type proportioning valve on the REAR circuit.

This will push more fluid to the front calipers. The stock Bug m/c is only 3/4" bore front and rear.

Increasing the bore of the m/c will have no effect on the front/rear brake bias. It will only serve to increase the amount of fluid displaced for the same pedal stroke which will decrease the mechanical advantage of the system, which may not be such a bad thing in some cases.

Matt
