I was told that my brake booster is broke and that is overheating my pads and rotors, making them warped. He said it is likely that the Master Cylinder is also broke. The booster is not covered by my warranty but the master cylinder is. The repair estimate was $1600.00 for everything. I can't afford that much at once. Is there an order I can have the repairs done in that won't hurt my van, and should everything add up to $1600.00?

$1600 should get you new booster and new master cylinder and set of new front pads and rotor s
and rear set of pads and rotor
and maybe also a PIZZA ….
way to much money for a booster and I dont believe you are getting the correct answers
move on to another shop and let them check it for you and get another opinion
I ve never seen and or heard of a booster that causing the brakes to warped

I would suspect calipers and or caliper hoses
