How expensive/ complicated would it be to swap my N/A XF with a srt6 engine or mercedes m112k?
ore are there better cheaper ways of getting 350-400 hp

In order to get that much additional horsepower you will need to get the 2005 Chrysler Crossfire SRT-6.

there sure is a cheaper way
sell your NA and buy an SRT
Or
look into a V8 swap. There have been several done over the past few years. Lots of info on the site. Just need to search for it.

Search the forum, this question has been asked many times. The most used responses (given how extremely hard the process is), is to do what member urbane has replies to you going from least expensive to most expensive. Good luck!

Join the "I'm going to drop a hemi in it" club. I hear you can do it in a weekend for around $4000.

Sure beats buying one of those SRT-things with that damn automatic transmission.

100 extra hp out of the standard engine sounds quite optimistic. Buying an SRT is a guaranteed method of getting there however.

I have not seen anyone get too near 200 hp at the wheels on a dyno, 197 springs to mind. l do not count nitro.

Unfortunately there is more to it than bolting on the supercharger.

Zeracer is spot on. It’s a hard no

There here have been several,recent, V8 conversations. I have no insight as to the cost associated with the swap. Perhaps you could search them out on the forum and PM them for their thoughts and an approximate budget to complete this.
