Both are better options than the powermaster. Vacuum is much cheaper and can be done with parts from a local auto parts supply store and a pedal from the junkyard. Install is easy, only hard part so I hear is changing the pedal out. Hydroboost is more expensive (maybe up to 5x more) but is supposed to hold better at the line. The install involves running multiple lines and is not as straightforward as vac conversion. I switched to hydroboost and I do really like it, but it still hasn't reached it full capability yet. I had a stuck valve in the pwr steering pump during install that pretty much ruined the pump, so I need to replace it. Got a replacement on the shelf, just haven't had the time/desire to do it. If I had to do it over again, I would try the vacuum first for the cost and easier install. Good luck whichever way you go, just get that powermaster out before it gets you!
