Upgrade CCRP100 to CCRP200 by changing the lid and the core?

I have a CCRP100, but my pool is ~15,000 gallons and I have been told that the filter is a little small for the new SuperFlo VST pump I am installing to replace the old Sta-Rite 1.5hp single-speed that just died on me.
Looking at the filter parts list, it appears that the only difference between the 100 and the 150/200 is the center core and the lid. https://www.pentair.com/content/dam...rts-sheets/filters/Clean_Clear_RP_Filters.pdf

I was thinking about buying just those two parts and throwing a 200sf cartridge in there, but wondered if anyone would recommend against that? It's $280 compared to $920 to buy a whole new one, so it's a decent savings.
