Welcome to Iboats,
Why would you like to increase the HP ? If both OB's are same CC, the restrictions could be : timing advance/carb synch, carb model, reed valve plate, valves, props, etc. Upgrades costs will depend entirely if it's a 2/4 strokes carbed or fuel inyected model. Check both 25-30 HP spare parts manual and see which parts differs. The upgrade could turn into a costly one depending on how many parts need to be bought and swapped..
Happy Boating
