You bought the wrong model if you are a boost junkie. It would be better to trade in your 525i for a 535i instead.

I've seen it done here on the forms.. They had the supercharger shipped overseas. My friend also hAd his e46 supercharged via ess and it's almost the same motor. If I find the thread with the owner I'll send you a link

I have a 04 525i and have looked into boosting my car and just as booyaazaa said we bought the wrong car. But I have looked into it and they have a supercharger. Heres the link
