It would cost a fortune with everything else that needs upgrading ie suspension ,brakes ,wiring looms , exhaust ,cooling system etc.Would be cheaper and better to buy a car with the larger engine already in it and working!

Anything is possible. It just depends how deep your pockets are!!
I would not bother TBH. The work involved would be astronomical. By a CLK55 it will be cheaper.

Take the supercharger off and put a turbo on it. 5k should get you a more than adequate set up.

You could buy a C63 for that and not have a frankenstien car at the end of it.

Hi,
Have to agree to the comment about buying a 55 AMG specially as you say you have 15k to spend, buy a nice 55 as a weekend car and you will still have circa 10k to bank or spend on your 55, 10k on engine mods would make for a very fast 55!
