Wondering if anyone has had some real world experience (good or bad) with adding a super charger to a BMW E34 540i or an E39 540i? Any and all comments on performance and/or problems are appreciated.

Unfortuntaely I don't think you're likely to find such specific model-specific mechanical help on such a general forum. I do think that the best serious option would be to ask around at a local performance shop, but as far as asking around online goes the folks at Bimmer Forums would probably be your best bet.

Its not really what you want, but theres a South Australian company that have a Vortech kit CAPA : Supercharger Kits
Scroll down to find it

Try "www.jimmy540i.com": this guy has a supercharged E39 540i (once had 450hp, now 485hp) and it seems like he's quite satisfied...
Happened upon this website a while ago...

Arguably a more expensive supercharger but these guys are probably the best BMW tuners in the US in terms of performance without sacrificing reliability.
