It'a not just as simple going Bigger on stepper motor. The drives they are providing now only just about cuts it for that size stepper so going bigger only makes things worse.
It's a Classic mistake often made thinking bigger is better when reality is it's often the worst thing to do. Bigger motors spin slower and require much more power and those drives won't handle larger steppers and give great performance from them.

You Get the performance thru correctly matching screws and motors to rest of machine. Just going LARGE only leads to COSTLY under performing Mistake.!!
