Default questions about superchargers for my 09

OK so i have had this car sense sep 4th and when i first got it i was happy with it. but for me the power my tc produced was not enough i wanted more. so i went and got the exhaust done and upgraded to 2 1/5in pipe from the cat back to a 3a racing muffler. and i noticed a major performance gain on my car. not only would my tc pull hard it ran better and accelerated quicker. and now i'm looking to getting a supercharger for my tc. i know most people would get a turbo not a trd supercharger. but my problem is i need to keep my warranty and I'm trying to get by with as much mods as i can. and my main question is will the supercharger from the 05-06 tc fit the 09's? i know the 07-08's the only difference in them is the mapping of the ecu so what's so different about the 06's?

If I remember correctly from previous threads it was the mounting bracket for the supercharger was different.

doesn't matter, you say you want to keep your warranty, there is no way toyota would warranty a supercharger made for the 05-06 tc on an 07 and up engine. so it doesn't matter.

you wanna keep your warranty, get a brand new supercharger from a licensed trd parts distrubuter like your toyota dealership, or trdsparks.com and do not modify it or race it and you will keep it.
