I have a 150gall a day RO unit, due to low water pressure I had to buy a booster pump which is now giving me 100 psi of pressure, my problem is, is that it’s still not producing much water, after nearly 4hrs of running I’ve only got about 8Lts of RO water.

Dual membrane? How much water is going down the waste line?

Sounds like something may be connected wrong or the membrane is damaged.

Perhaps you're missing your restrictor and most of the water is just bypassing (flushing) the membrane
