I don't think theres too much out yet for the 550 engines.

I believe Kleeman released a supercharger which should result in about 480hp.
You can contact PowerChip, Speed Tuning USA, RennTech, Kleeman, or Brabus and see what kind of ECU upgrades they have (should range from $300-$1,000 and give you about 15hp).
I'm sure that the above listed tuners are working on headers and forced induction for these cars.

Good luck and keep us updated.

Kleemann does have a supercharger and headers available for this car.

Wow you need more power?
The biggest complaint I have about my 550 is handling and body roll.
