Anyways, warranties and claims are up for debate which there are lots of threads on. I'm still looking for a fair/authorized install.

Besides, I'd like to build a relationship with a dealer so if the TRD blower ever comes out, that's an option for me. I tried that with Scion of Huntington Beach and that was a waste of time. They told me list price of the intake was $510.
Your warranty will NOT be voided by installing that TRD part by yourself. I know from experience...I've installed all of my aftermarket parts by myself/with the help of friends (not by the dealership) and have had 0 issues with my warranty. I have an aftermarket intake, headers, downpipe/midpipe, crank pulley, aftermarket hoses, you name it. They never give me a hard time for anything and my warranty is still in tact

Even worst case scenario, they couldn't "void" your warranty, that dealership could simply just refuse to do the work. See "[ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnuson%E2%80%93Moss_Warranty_Act"]Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/ame]" for more info
