Pretty hard to tell from youtube. Sounds fine to me. What seems to be the problem?

Something definately sounds off. First...did you install tje tune that came with the supercharger? It sounds like you have one heck of a knock in the bearings of your supercharger driveshaft and are rattling around. What grade fuel are you using? Have you checked your oil? I keep listening to it and it seriously sounds like the drive on the back of the supercharger is loose. I almost want to say that the supercharger sounds like it's running completely dry with no lubrication. Something is loose in that supercharger causing that sound. I would talk to someone from magnacharger and tell them the sound is like two low speed cog gears running dry.

NO, it DOES NOT sound good. Something like lifters or bearings are not right. The low toned rattle is the problem sound. Get it checked out quick.

Without a doubt not right.

Smart Line · 04-09-2011, 08:12 AM

OP do not drive that car. Please!

I hear what sounds like a knock. and sounds like 1 of 8 as far as the time between the sound.I would not think bearing....

P.S. i was told by a local S/C installer my car was "blown up" and all that was wrong was fouled plugs.....
