Are you locking up the wheels? If so, a smaller diameter MC could be an option.
And maybe a pedal with a higher ratio is an option?

Nope, like I said above, brake balance is really good now, but pedal force to brake to the verge of blocking is too high. I need a booster.

Yes, that is what I am looking for. I know it exists and its a simple item. I hope some company made some for a good price
I looked, but could not find one with some of the bigger US company's. Hoped s/body knew the right company who has them.
