Did you get a price from the mechanic? It's usually not worth it. Usually just cheaper to sell it and maybe buy something like the E550 which would have a lot more power. The bigger engines also had more standard options too.

Some performance company said between 8-15k but I found a c32 supercharge blower for around 1500 not the full kit though and i think it's the same engine if i could get the full kit for around 3k will be good

If you want reliable and easy to maintain buy a 500 or 55. A modified V6 will never compete.

Nobody did it successfully if that is what you are asking about.
Supercharger will not do much without bigger intakes, bigger injectors and new computer program.

Not the same engine. c32 was an M112. Your 07 is an m272. Kleemann made aftermarket supercharger kits for the m112 and I've seen a couple in E classes but nothing for the m272. It's too fragile and pointless.
