Sorry, a bit slow when it come to electronics.

....thanks.
It is quite likely that you will find no difference in performance. The power capacitor smooths out the high frequency ripple and spikes from PWM (partial-throttle motor operation). The manufacturer's original capacitor was (hopefully!) selected to be sufficient, and going larger doesn't do much-- it's a case of diminishing returns.
