No a larger brake booster would only reduce the amount of effort required at the brake pedal (assuming it has a higher boost output). It might seem like you have more stopping power because you are doing less with your foot but in reality you aren't, since the the brake at the wheel is still doing as much work as it was before. If you want more stopping power start at the brake itself. A good set of pads is a good starting point (although I can't say which pads would be good as I am still using the pads the car came with when I bought it).
