Ghetto Jet

My friend just recently purchased a bone stock 1990 x2 and he would like to have more power. He would like to be on par with my superjet power wise. (2000 superjet, ada head 35cc and b pipe)
I suggested that he try to max out his 650 as much as possible, new intake manifold, a 44 carb, higher comp head, pipe, prop etc. Is it worth it to max out the 650 engine? If not, what would be the best route to go... kawi 750, seadoo 717? Can the 650 pump handle the power of the bigger engine if propped correctly? Lastly what would I be getting myself into with an engine swap? I for some reason highly doubt it is just going to drop right in.
on a side note I had an absolute blast on that x2 today. I was just going to take it out to make sure everything was running right and I just couldn't make it back in. My friend didn't look to pleased on the dock.
