Can i upgrade my mid 2006 Blackbook A1181/MA 472 from G to N which seems to pick up at distance much better?
 
Yes, you can do three things. Get an N card from a C2D Macbook, get the N Enabler from Apple (US$1.95 download), or find a cd that came with a Airport Extreme N and get the N Enabler from that.

If he has the Core Duo, which I believe he does, than the enabler will not work as the hardware is g-only.
 
There is no “mid 2006” MacBook, only an “early 2006” (Core Duo) and a “late 2006” (Core 2 Duo). If you have the early 2006 model, the enabler will not work and I doubt that you can put a newer card in.
