Sharding,
For what it's worth, I have a 15/16ths MC without the booster. I now have 11" Wilwoods on all wheels and the brakes are a huge improvement from where I started. Pedal feels good and solid where I can modulate from soft to hard braking. I started with 9" rotors up front, drums on the rear, a pedal ratio set for a booster but no booster. Brakes were weak, and rolling through a red light with my daughter in the car because I couldn't stop forced me to take action. I know TCRIST here has a booster on his discs and says they work very well. D-CEL has a lot of good brake info in his posts too. Do a search and you should find lots of info on different brake remedies.

John
