I run 60-80 psi without a booster pump on city water. It keeps up with 3 tanks (34g, 54g, 125g) so I don’t see the need in getting a booster pump yet.
 
I run two carbon blocks in series at incoming water pressure first, then into the booster pump. This cleans the Chloramines out and also provides a very clean, sediment free water to the booster pump for longer life. From the booster pump into RO membranes(staging). Final stage is the DI resins.
