Sounds like a leak or air is still in the system. Did you buy a new master cylinder or a rebuilt one? Might be bad? Any of the connections could be leaking and to find out which, I would put the car on stands, remove all wheels. Clean all connections with spray brake cleaner and then have someone apply the breaks and look at the calipers and lines with a flashlite to see if there is a leak. Are the pads new? Old /worn pads will require more pedal travel. Watch the pistons and pads move to insure there are no leaks there. I would do a really good bleed with a helper pumping the pedal and make sure the fluid level stays high. Instructions are posted here about how to do the bleeding. If your car has a hydralic clutch, check to see if they share the fluid?
