Default SC, Where to get it from?

So I have read thru a lot of threads here dealing with Super Chargers and Warrantys.
It seems I can get one thru Roush or Saleen, at an authorized installer, and keep my warranty.
So I have some questions..

1. Roush or Saleen, I got the idea here that the saleen is better?
2. WHERE? I am in West Los Angeles, I called the authorized Saleen dealer closest to me, Buerge Ford, and the sales guy didnt know.. hes having the service center call me back on monday. I went to Don Knott ford in Carson when I was getting ready to buy the car, and I dont really want to deal with them again.. I got the serious, car salesman business, from them.. just felt shady. They also told me that if I bought a regular mustang there, and added the Roush SC, it would void my warranty. Were they just trying to sell me on something else?
3. does it have to be a authorized maintence shop, or only the dealership? is there authorized shops that arnt dealers?

Any help would be appreciated.. I really want to get a SC on my new 07 GT, but I am not going to jeapordize my warranty for it.
THANKS!

the saleen s./c must be installed by the saleen installation dealership, which is in cali I believe, or very near to keep the 3 year, 36k warranty. otherwise you only receive a 1 year 12k warranty on your powertrain.

So it has to be installed at Saleen in Irvine?

If you're in CA. that's where I would go if I wanted to keep my warranty. Just be careful, when you get there you'll want to buy a whole bunch more stuff!!

screw Roush, the warranty is figured into the price of the s/c and you can get a much more efficient setup for the money. Roush FTL.

Yes, you can get a much more efficient setup for your money.. but not one that will keep my full warranty intact, which is the point of this whole thing.. I am not spending all this money on this car just to void major parts of the warranty lol
