Agility 50 / kymco Agility 50 upgrade

Hi,  Thanks in advance for your help.
I have a 2008 Kymco Agility 50.  It runs great!  No problems.  It is factory original except I have derestricted it so it now goes 40 to 45mph.  Anyway, it struggles on the up hills.  I would like more power, not more speed.  I am not really interested in a big bore kit.  I would like to replace the motor with a 125cc or 150cc.  Will this provide the extra power I need to get up the hills?  If so, is there a direct plug-and-play motor that I can swap out? Or, are there other ways to get more power (not speed) for going up hills?
Thanks
Paul

Thanks for the input guys.  The only reason I installed the 7.5 Ninja sliders is because that is what my local shop (they are now out of business) sold me and I did not know any better.  I will put the rollers back in (I think that they are 6.5), rejet the carb and see what happens.  What is this "contra spring" thing that people talk about?  I am not familiar with it?

I went on-line to see a video of the correct way to install the sliders as the diagram that came with the Ninja sliders was basically useless.  With the original round rollers, the power is just as bad so I can't conclude that I installed the sliders the wrong way.
I am trying to determine if spending the time and effort to installed the bigger jet in the carb is worth the time and effort (to hopefully return some of the lost power).
Any input is welcome.
Thanks.

Thanks for the replies.  I did the aforementioned modifications in two steps.  The first step was to cut the wire in the CDI.  This raised the speed of the scooter from 30mph to 36mph with no loss of power at all.  The next step was to replace the boss in the variator.  I used a part ordered directly from Kymco.  Although the scooter will now go 45mph, it really struggles to get up to even 40 mph.  The power seems to be about the same up to 30 mph, but above this speed, the scooter really struggles to gain speed.  On a perfectly flat road it will slowly (very slowly) get to 45.  If there is even a very small rise in the road, the scooter will barely get above 30 mph.  I then disassembled everything to make sure I had assembled it correctly.  No problems were found.  I then replaced the rollers with 7.5g Ninja sliders.  This made things marginally worse (even less power).  Should I put the round rollers back in and install the 82 jet in the carb?  Will this larger jet restore the lost power?
Thanks!

Hi,
I modified the CDI and installed the new variator boss in my Agility 50.  Now the scooter goes almost 45 mph but with a significant loss of power.  I did not change the jet in the carb.  What should I do to regain the lost power while keeping the top speed?
