Default need help/advise with trd supercharger

My supercharger has been making a lot of noise recently and burning a lot of oil. Its an 06 with 111,000 on it but i dont think the SC was on the whole time. Either way its out of warranty. I went to my local toyota dealership and they advised me that they were only able to find one blower in the US and it was going to be 1800 for the unit plus install. I figured it was going to have a hefty price tag but not nearly that much so i was wondering if yall could give me any advice.

1. Is there any way to bypass the supercharger and run the car with the trd tune and injectors?

2. Does anyone know where to get a cheaper blower BNIB?

3. Any idea what it would cost to put it back to stock?

4. would it be cheaper to rebuild it?

I would rebuild it. This should cost about $530.
