Not too sound like a noob but if the source of the problem is poor factory brake bias front to rear then wouldn't the simple and cost effective solution be to add a brake bias proportioning valve to the car. Yeah it might take a little trial and error to dial in but I would guess a hell of a lot cheaper than one of these ABS systems.
