Seems like the author was confusing the X5 with the X6, which did indeed start out with the N54 twin turbo (and also had the N63 turbo V8 from the get-go), and then moved to the N55 twin scroll at the same time as the X5 LCI.
Yeah, think he got that detail wrong. The V8TT is new to the 2011 X5. It was in the X6 last year though, maybe he's confusing them.
