You certainly do ... so why do you believe another 20 odd brake is gonna be good enough


Get a high low boost switch, that way most of the time, it can be 280 ish then when you wanna feel a little more kick switch it over...

OR do thousands of miles a year in an old van and just 3-4k a year in the car... like I do
