X5 with 3.0 compatibility

This may be a dumb question but isn't the 3.0 engine in the X5 the same engine as in the BMW 330s? If so, couldn't one get all the same upgrades from all the aftermarket companies for that engine? Was looking at getting a Turner Supercharger?

The engine is the same, but accessories are mounted differently. There are a couple of superchargers out there that are made specifically for the X5, so, why mess around with something that's designed for the 330?
