So I have a CSL 175 magnetic ballast. I am thinking about changing to a 250 mag ballast -with the same box. Has anyone got expierence on this? What do I need?

It's not that difficult. Maybe we can do this at my house on the day of the tank tour. I got all the tools :D

My suggestion would be to purchase a 250w electronic ballast vs. a magnetic ballast and then change the innards out.
