The supercharger is possible, but I do not think ESS makes the supercharger anymore. It will be hard to find one.
I am thinking of doing a V10 Swap into my x5 for more power.
I know that it is not heard of, but I was wondering if it is possible. My main worries, other than price, is the fitment and AWD. I think that after the conversion, the car will be RWD.
Another option is doing an LS swap. But I am unfamiliar with American cars and engines.
Do you guys have any opinions about this?

How much you planning to spend on this project? I assume price gonna be astronomical with all the parts and labor
Would it make more sense to buy something else (x5m for example) prices came down dramatically in a last year
