I may try an even softer pad or fit a remote servo in the longer term.
I had to fit a pressure restrictor in the rear brake line to stop the rear end locking up first.
I'm going to replace the restrictor with an adjustable valve so i can optimize things.

I am running Polymatrix E type compound pads , and braking is vigorous without any power assistance.
For the rear i have a Wilwood proportioning valve to limit the pressure to the rear brakes. Takes some brake testing to find the good adjustment. Once set you can leave it like that.
