From my understanding of reading, the ABS system is programmed to apply X amount of pressure from the pump to the pistons during braking. This has to be reprogrammed when adding bigger brake calipers to allow for more pressure to be applied. I think the OP if correct to do it.

The ABS does not apply, nor assist in the application of brake pressure. The brake booster takes care of that. The ABS simply applies and releases brake pressure fast enough to where the wheels don't lock up (9 to 15 times per second to be exact).
