Upgrading the brake master cylinder?

[Fidde_swe]

I´m looking to upgrade my master cylinder on my 1,8T because of a truly big brake upgrade.
I want to know if anyone knows of a replacement cylinder from either RS4 or S4???
Or does any company have an upgrade?

Thanks!

Where is it located and how hard is it to swap these?

It's located right under the brake fluid reservoir:



Attached to the brake booster (#6):



Bentley manual says the brake booster has to be removed before the master cylinder can be removed from it.

Hmmn doesn't look complicated but I wonder why you have to remove whole brake booster.
