Did I read that right? You're building a tube framed car to drive in crowded city traffic? Holy Overkill, Batman!
Yeah, well, the car is being built as a daily driver, weekend racer (well see if that actually happens), but I'm sure at some point I'd be stuck in traffic.

DSM's, 3kGT's, Conquest/starions all share a common 5/8 dia. bore master cylinder. The differences between systems is in the slave. Pedal effort will acutally decrease as you make the ratio between the master and slave larger.

Diameters as follows:

N/T DSM 3/4
Turbo DSM 13/16

N/T 3KGT 13/16
AWD 3KGT 11/16

I'd suggest trying the AWD 3KGT slave. Be careful, you will increase your output at the slave and could over-stroke the clutch if the pedal is fully depressed.
Hey, that's excellent info, thanks. I think I'll have a look at the 3kgt VR-4 slave and likely give it a try, I think then I can just adjust it, then see where it disengages, and weld in an adjustable stop, to make sure that I don't over-stroke it.
