I would bet you could sell the car, buy a used 535 and still come out ahead $$ wise and with a much better engine suited to modding. 430hp at the wheels is easy.

I think all the superchargers are for the old 03-05 530 models. I have not heard of a supercharger for the newer version.

+1. A proper super charger will run well over $10k installed, whereas with a 535 you can spend $1,200 and have over 450 hp and even more torque.

Sorry. If you indeed have a 2007 530xi, there are no supercharger/turbo kits for the
N52B30.
The mangesium aluminum design was not intended for forced induction. Plus, the valve trian which encorporates Valvetronic was not intended for forced induction. I've search
for years, and no one has made a kit for this engine [yet].

Like the other posters said - if you want to boost performance, sell your car and get a 2008-2010 turbo 6 and a tuning kit...my Dinan S2 had been a blast for 4+ years...
