Default help with my resto project please

I have a 90 spec rs turbo , i have decided to ditch the abs
so I have 4 fresh pipes going from the wheels straight to the servo area
I want to replace the master cylinder with a unit that has 4 outlets

so my questions are ,,, what cylinder can I use and do I need some kinda valves inline for the rear brakes

thanks

understood . well most logical is non abs set up with the rear line valves from same non abs car xr3i mk4
4 ports on the m,c the most forward on the logo side is bigger, same as the oversize from abs cars too
