is it at all possible to take the stock motor in a 05 WK and turn it into a srt-8 motor or something close like are there supercharger or turbo up grades out there for them?

here let me google that for you.

in all seriousness yes you can supercharge a 5.7L Cherokee to put out the power of a 6.1L SRT-8 however the SRT-8 has a different trans, tcase and a built D44 in it so your guess is as good as mine on the lifespan of your drivetrain afterwords.
