Default Testing will continue momentarily

Thanks everyone so much for the feedback. The pedal does sink a bit when I turn the car on. I'm not sure if it was the new master cylinder or not but I went for a drive with the abs fuse pulled and it seemed to stop a lot better. Still not great but definitely better than when I got it. Good enough though where it could just have crappy pads. However while driving it died and I had to change the battery back up to get it home. So I can't test the brakes much more now. But I'll get it figured out as soon as I can drive it again.

Yeah the abs malfunctioning is not fun. Most just leave the fuse out.
Some say the factory rotors and pads provide the best stopping power. I have used brembo rotors and benix pads and in general drive like Im towing a trailer leaving plenty of room.
