I'm fitting v6 brembos on my XSi with the 406 master cylinder (purely because I have a full v6 I can take appart and use whatever I need). I'd advise to use the bigger master cylinder as it'll help improve the feel of the brake and travel as well.
The pads you use are the same on all the brembo 4pots from different cars but the oem ones will be all the same, just depends if you want to use something better like tarox, red stuff etc.
I'm going to be running brembo max pads and c4 vts brembo max vented discs with mine.
