Sadly a bigger servo won't really do anything other than make the brakes grabby and the pedal spongy.

Fairly sure that rally design (www.raldes.co.uk) do a big brake kit which spaces the caliper out from it's original position and provides bigger discs.

Not sure if you've got solid or vented discs as standard but if they're solid, then an upgrade such as a standard vented setup from a model further up the range might be a cheap option?
