I doubt anyone offers that or ever will and it would be cheaper to buy a car with one.

I've moved your question from General Tech Help to X-Type forum. This is the place to post questions about your model.

I suppose anything is possible with enough time and money, but the weak point would be the transfer case, followed by the transmission. Both would need to be upgraded before a supercharger was put on.

Yes - it's a scam. Ignore.
