Leave the servo alone and fit better pads (DS2500) will give plenty of stop and pedal feel. Won't put your head through the windscreen but I hate modern cars that do that.

fit a smaller bore master cylinder, this will help, It's a PITA to start changing boost ratios on direct servo's, you have to strip them down and modify the pushrod and bakelite.
