Default New Pool Pump: 1 1/2" pipes but 2 1/2" inlet/outlet

Hello,

My 1 1/2 HP Hayward Super Pump kicked the bucket, so I thought I'd
upgrade and get the 1 1/2 Hayward Northstar, not realizing that the
Northstar had 2 1/2" inlet/outlet fittings (vice 1 1/2" for the
superpump). Can I just use reducers to bring my 1 1/2" plumbing to 2
1/2", or is that unadvisable?

Thanks,
J
