supercharger making noise

[kenconerly]

I noticed my supercharger makes a crazy noise when i starts it up. Its sound like a high pitch squeak. I thought it was the belt but i replaced it and the noise is still there... Can anyone help me?????

Is the noise there if you pull the belt off?

^ This. I would bet an idler pulley is on the way out.

I get a similar noise coming from the s/c but more like a grinding noise should I be worried? But once it warms up it goes away

pull the belt and see if it's better.

A) You have an intake and the sound is completely normal (sounds like a shovel being dragged across gravel?)

B) You have a coupler that is on its way out the door (marbles in a bag being shaken up) Order Coupler kit and replace.

C) Bearing going out, not a fun replacement, seek search bar and how to replace bearings.
