Default tC purchase questions

Im thinking of trading in my box for a tC. A fw questions.

I want a tC thats supercharger. I heard that you cant buy a new tC with a supercharger, but rather much purchase it sepratly.
Is this so??

Ive heard that the 07 tC dosnt have a supercharger designed for it. Is this so?

Any idears if its possible to buy a used tC and have the supercharger added...since its not"new" anymore. I mean that have it under the same bill...i guess like ordering it that way.

Thanks for any answers of comments.

The supercharger is not a factory installed option but a dealer installed option. They will install it on any tC. I forget if its compatible with the '07. maybe someone else can help out there. But they will install a s/c on any used/new tC, whether you buy it from them or not. The same way they will install a trd sway bar before delivery too.

my overall conclusion on the trd supercharger is that they really can't be 100% trusted after reading everyone's mishaps with them on here...i'd say, save that money.
