4th gen rear brakes

about a year ago i installed a narrowed 4th gen rear in my car
to get rid of the 9bolt ,well the 4th gen alum. callipers are barely working ?
do i need to use a different or adjustable proportioning valve due to the larger fluid capacity of the new callipers .
any help greatly appreciated.
