Default whats different?

Hey guys got a few questions about my au xls v8...

I know my motor is rated as the 175kw stock motor, I'm wondering what is different from the motor in mine compared to the motor in the 200 and 220kw motors of the XR models?
I want to know how hard it would be to have that output but keeping the motor stock. Is is just computer tuning, intake, exhaust or is there different internals in the XR motors?

Cheers for your help.
Michael

intake, exhaust and tune will get you around the 220kws at the flywheel

The differences are;

Cam
Compression
Rockers
Tune
Inlet porting
Head work
Fuel pressure regulator

There are a few other things too that I can't think of off the top of my head. A search will find the rest for you.
