Hey everyone the last few days I've been noticing a loud screamy type sound from my engine bay, near the supercharger and the belts, today my sc belt came off... It stayed on around the sc and around the crank but came off the two idlers down below... I took the belt off for now, just wondering what could cause this? Or if I should just get a new belt put on and be done with it...??

Try and spin all the pulleys and see which one is locked up.

Seems to me like the supercharger one does not want to spin freely whatsoever... Does this mean I just need to replace that pulley? I hope so

If the supercharger is locked up you have to replace it but it more likely is an idler pulley.

Should spin with some resistance, and make a whooshing sound when you spin it. How are the tensioner and idler pulleys?

Idler puller was seized completely, bought all three new pulleys and a new sc belt, should hopefully do the trick, hoping my tensioner is still good

You should be fine. Good luck.
