Upgrade Hydroboost worth it?

2000 F250, 7.3. I believe my Hydroboost may be going out, new mfg from Bosch is $200, "upgraded" model is $600
Is the juice really worth the squeeze?
Respectfully
Mike

Link to "upgraded" model. What would be upgraded over a standard hydroboost? Bigger question is what makes you think the hydroboost may be going out?

My hydroboost has served me well for 250k...it will need to be replaced too as it's getting wet on the inside. I'd just go with an oem bosch unless you plan to run ram assist or go to a high flowing pump...as Lee's says on their site
