ABF is an engine code, nothing to do with the brakes.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Once again, an ABF conversion is fitting an engine with the code ABF.

It is nothing to do with the brakes.

What do you want to do, because the standard brakes, master and servo are unaffected by an engine swap.

Maybe try asking your question again, differently, using some more punctuation and maybe some more words?

Your options are going to depend on what your choices are for upgraded brakes. However most options don't include changing the brake servo just the master cylinder.
 
You will need to be more specific, the master cylinder only affects the pedal travel and effort. If say you intend to add G60 or Mk2 16v spec brakes most people would go for a 22mm master cylinder from a MK2 16v or non ABS MK3 Golf.

If you already have a 16v then all you want is the 280mm disks, callipers and carriers. Any other mk2 will also need the hubs and master cylinder.
