So for the 7AT, there's an upgraded flex plate, Valve Body and clutch packs available. I'd imagine that'd pretty much do it for handling up to 700hp. Level 10, I believe, can do an entire build-up on the 7AT for $3200 or thereabouts. I think they offer an entire built tranny, with no exchange, for $4K.

So at least $3500 to rebuild the tranny and another $6000 (at least) for a supercharger. Throw in labor, tuning and other misc cost to beef up the stock motor.
I'd say not worth it.
If you have money, might as well wait for the 2017 Q60 or trade your current setup for a 6MT coupe.
