Upgrading a Radial ProDI with a Jensen tranny... has anybody done it?

So I got this Radial ProDI a while back because at the time I couldn't afford the JDI. Sometimes I feel it's a tad warm-sounding compared to just plugging my guitar into my interface's instrument input, but the pad on the ProDI comes in handy with 18V-modded EMG Hetfields and Duncan Blackouts, and the thru output is also useful.

It's a bit beat up and scratched up, so I don't think I could sell it for much to grab something else.

Would dropping in the same Jensen transformer the JDI and other higher-end passive DI's noticeably improve it? Has anybody done it? Would I be better off just keeping it as a backup and getting a JDI or a Pro48 or something else?

:D
