Although of you paid for the extended coverage you would obviously just be flushing that down the toilet. As far as mileage is concerned, I supercharged my car with less then 5k on it and it has been fine. I believe many members on here have added superchargers at all sorts of different mile marks and for the most part there hasn't been any issues
I did a search but did not find anything pertaining to the 2008 having a weaker motor as opposed to the newer ones. If that's the case it might make sense for me to get a 2011+ and upgrade or just wait for the new generation. However this is exactly the type of information I need before I shell out 13-15k. Thanks
