I believe the factory booster for the c4 is a single diaphragm 9" unit. I would have assumed that the dual 8" would have provided more pressure.
I will continue looking. If anyone else has any had any success with c4 brakes, i am all ears!

I would also expect the dual booster to help more but I think it's important to look at the pedal ratio as well. The pedal ratio is what converts pressure at the master cylinder into foot feel.
Could you clarify this please?

What pads and rotors are you using? Sometimes the difference is very noticeable.
Also, which year calipers are you using?
