Default 66k Miles too much for Supercharger?

Hey guys my 01 GT has 66k on the clock now and I was wondering is that to high of mileage to put a Supercharger on and still be a reliable car, my car unfortunaly has an automatic transmission should I be worried about my tranny as well? and is there anything I can do to beef her up to handle the added performance of the supercharger and also anything I should do to keep the engine running good and reliable? also by the way how much does the supercharger affect your MPG anyone running a mustang with a blower what kinda mileage do you see? Any help is apperciated thanks

TKO 500, 420~ WHP, and stock motor other than cams and valvesprings, still going strong 2+ years later
