THIS IS AN EXAMPLE ONLY!!! You need to do the math for your vehicle.
You could calculate it and determine which is best.
Here are the exact sizes available:

Then determine how much reduction in stroke you want. THIS IS STROKE ONLY NOT PEDAL TRAVEL. You'll need to calculate your pedal ratio to determine travel.
We're basically calculating the volume of fluid moved. So, for example:
19mm M/C D = .750"
Current stroke h = .625"
V = pi * (D/2)^2 * h
V = 3.14 * (.750" / 2)^2 * .625"
V = .2759766 in^3
So if we want to reduce the stroke by .125", but move the same volume, we solve for the diameter:
D = 2 * ((V / pi / h)^0.5)
D = 2 * (((.275966 / 3.14 / (.625" - .125"))^0.5)
D = .8385"
This result falls closer to the 20.64mm master cylinder
For pedal travel:
A = Distance from pivot point to middle of push / pull point
B = Distance from pivot to point of push on master cylinder
P = Pivot point
Pedal Ratio is determined by dividing length "A" by length "B"

(I recall the 914 brake pedal ratio being something like 5.4 to 1)

THIS THREAD IS ABOUT REDUCING BRAKE THROW.
...I currently run a 19mm and find that their's still way to much throw for my taste. I had heard the 23mm out of a 930 would reduce the throw considerably, but some real world reporting is indicating difficulty modulating. Seems like the 22.22 might be a good compromise.
