The number of pistons isn't the whole factor when accounting for differences in brake feel (pedal travel). There's the size of the pistons and how much the calipers add, too. Not to mention if you change other gear like the MC. You can have a 6-piston setup that has less capacity than a 4-piston setup just because of different sized caliper setups. In the end once you bleed the system properly you should be pretty close to stock, but a faster-grabbing more efficient caliper is going to feel tighter than a generic mass-production unit. (Also don't forget that more powerful brakes will make differences in pad compounds more distinct, such as temp requirements and fade, and also don't forget to test your fluid regularly.)
