Default Master Cylinder Upgrade

Okay, so when I got my car I replaced the master cylinder(like 8 months ago) and the piece of junk is leaking down now(hold foot on pedal, pedal sinks, car rolls) So, I'm trying to find a master cylinder upgrade, and I'm probably gonna get some mark VII calipers, I'm having a hard time finding a master cylinder that isn't just OEM replacement. Anyone know where to find one?
