    when i start my car after sitting for awhile the supercharger makes a terrible noise for about 5 minutes (or until it gets warm). the noise comes from the intake, same type of noise as a bad coupler only the coupler is new and there is no play. any idea's?

    Thats the air rushing past the throttle body and the iac routing.

    Yea it is normal. I hated the way it sounded when I switched to an open cone but it grows on you a little I guess
