I think a venue such as EBay may be your best bet.
Good luck with the sale!

Hi... Tij how goes it? I was told it would be straight forward as emissions setup etc.. would be the same. There MAY be some issues with upgrading your ECU but then again, I was told maybe not. Frankly I do not know. I only researched it through VOB and Tischer BMW shop foremen.. but everyone seems to think it would not be a headache..as it is done by factory with the same parts...
 .cheers,

I would wonder if it would be worth the expense of upgrading a 2001 4.4. If the engine costs you $6,500 and installation costs $3,500 you have just put $10,000 into a five year old X5. Any future buyers of the vehicle may be leary of it due to the fact that a 2001 4.8 did not exist and that is somewhat of a "Franken X5". If you figure the 2001 X5 is worth even somewhere in the low 20's I would wonder if with the engine anyone would want to pay $30,000 for it.
I would sell the 4.4 and buy a 4.6 if you want the additional power. Or buy the Dinan supercharger and now you have a Dinan BMW that would certainly have some value to it. I would think this engine would be best for someone with an interesting project needing an engine say a kit car or a boat. Abdoul, I do not mean to put the brakes on the sale of your engine. It seems to be a really nice item but I question the value of upgrading a 4.4 to a 4.8.
