RO system to control water parameters worth it?

Finally received the booster pump (was on back order), so after this weekend will start kicking it into gear. First, just need to work out how all the connections hook up lol. With high pressure and low pressure switches built in, that have their own connections plus the usual inflow/outflow connections, it sounds like it will be a fun little project all on its own getting it up and running. The pressure switches are for the auto-shutoff when the water pressure reduces to a point but also they work with float valves etc at the other end.

I think once fully RO, that will be game changer no.
I had the same issue. My house pressure was sitting at 32 PSI on my initial RO test. Now with the booster pump it's running at 85 PSI and can make 150 gallons a day, with MUCH less waste water. I actually had to turn the pump pressure down a little as the system I am using can develop minor connection leaks if the PSI is 90 or higher. Once you get it set up, you will love it!
