c350 engine swap

After owning my w204 c300 4matic for about 2 years I am planning to change some things around it.

Next week I will remove my resonator and install an magna flow x-pipe

What I really want to know if it is possible is though to replace my c300's engine with the new 302HP c350 engine or even the 2008-2011 model so no problems will happen..

Is it possible?

LOL you wont be able to swap out anything, unless you want to pay 60+ grand. Just upgrade to the c63 or turbo.
