150% or 130%

I am going to be purchasing a new headsail for my 22 footer. I currently have hanked on 100% and 150% sails, I use both of them . Both sails are older and worn, especially the 150%. I am also getting a roller furler for this headsail too. My question is how much difference is a 150% over a 130%??? Will the 130% keep me close to the other boats in my fleet ( many do use a 130%) or do I go with the addage, get what I can afford and go with the bigger of the 2 sails??

Mike
