This is a unusual question...
For 5000 USD you can buy fantastic scopes (new and used) that don't need hacking.
Keysight. There are topics on this forum for 1000x and higher 2000x,30p0x,4000x models.
@OP depending on how high you want to step up in terms of upgrades, you may need to add hardware to the scope. Some scopes may have same PCBs as their lower priced siblings but the PCB is not populated with parts.
I would argue that mechanical disassembly, soldering on the board and all other kinds of equipment changing except just software changes cannot be considered "hacking" in a sense of word...
I would have hard time recommending something worth 5000 USD that needs soldering and physical changes, that can easily damage it permanently, to a unknown person of unknown skillset.
On Keysight 3000 and 4000, software changes that convert 100>200 and 350>500 MHz and open all options are hacks, that are easy and low risk as those on other scopes. Everything else is not for the fainthearted.
But as I said, for 5000USD, you can buy a lot of scope without hacking of any sort...
OP needs to explain his request better. Otherwise it's shooting in a dark....
