Is this on a Hayward MaxFlo II pump? If so, you will also need the appropriate-sized impeller to get the full effect of the larger motor. Pool motors generally spin at the same speed, so changing the horsepower won't get you any improvement and will only waste electricity.
There is no Tune-Up Kit for the MaxFlo II pumps, but be sure to replace the motor shaft seal when replacing the motor.
