5.4 is pretty old. You will want to run a newer version, like 6.2. You'll need a maintenance contract (like SmartNet) on your ASA, and then you can download it.
Note that you also need Firepower Licences (like TAMC) and you'll need a virtual management appliance, such as the Firepower Virtual Management Centre to get a working solution.
If you don't have these then you have an ASA with the capability to run Firepower and you'll need to get the extra bits.

if you purchase the firewall with the firepower services and SSD drives. The firepower boot image is already installed in it. You just need to recover the image and install the firepower software.package file on it.
