Default Hydro Boost?

Anybody ever put one in a XJ? And if so how much better doe's it stop?
My XJ used to stop on a dime. Now with the 33's the stopping distance feels like almost double.
Idc if I wear my pads alot more cause they are inexpensive to replace anyways.

i know my dads ****** had an old booster in it and wouldnt stop until you almost had to stick your feet on the ground like scooter lol
he had it rebuilt and now it stops like a regular car
oh hes on 35s btw

ill be able to say what a replacement booster will do as i just got a new one yesterday i just need to install it. it was about 70 at autozone

I'd say you're much more likely to gain stopping power by just upgrading your current brakes. Hydro boost seems like would be more work than the advantage you would get out of it
