I called in and asked, they told me that even though it is a TRD part, it is considered aftermarket under the 100K extended warranty and everything falls into a huge grey area... Need;ess to say, I am waiting for a check in the mail after I cancelled mine.

Bummer, my Insurance offers Mechanical Breakdown Insurance which is basically 7yr/100k coverage for only a $250 deductible when needed.

Im guessing the S/C is going to fall under aftermarket, and in that lovely grey area... Damn

No absolutely not! The supercharger comes with it's own warranty! It will however, keep your original warranty still intact and if it causes something to fail or break within the 100k miles(not the supercharger itself) it will still be covered under your warranty. but the S/C is not "covered" under your manufacturer warranty which is why it comes with it's own. Hope this helps

From TRDUSA.com:
So if your new vehicle powertrain warranty is longer, it should be covered b/c it's still the "new vehicle powertrain warranty."
