Lightbulb how to supercharge/turbocharge a Cl55 00-02 ?

Hi guys, i'm looking for a w215 Cl and found 2 excellent cars: a cl600 and cl55 amg, both are 2002 and therefore don't have the supercharger.

I was wondering of the possiblities to add a supercharger, or maybe try to turbocharge them.
What do you think about the idea?
Is there much electronic work to do to the car's computer to handle the change?

thank you very much

Yup, the money spent in the process will not be worth the headache. Just buy it turbocharged or supercharged.

Good choice, plus there's many more upgrades inside, and they newer ones are more reliable, and will mostly be lower mileage. And of course, insanely fast. Good luck.
