  4. Has anyone else done any custom turbo setups on the 4.8i?
You've confused the pig 4.8 in the X5 for other BMWs that are regularly modded. Should have done your research first- this is a microscopic market, with few choices and super high prices. You're on a custom path, all the way, based on my experience.
