Well, it's FINALLY installed after waiting two months....It was waiting for me outside the install shop. It started right up, but it sounded like a screaming cat under the hood . I shut it down, opened the hood and as far as I can tell everything looked ok....Maybe it's supposed to give a little whine???

So I left the lot got about a quarter mile down the road and felt it just WASN'T right, there was WAY too much noise....so I turned around and left my car there and left a message on their voicemail telling them I didn't think the noise was normal of what a supercharger sounds like...Is the Vortech really this loud??? Pics and a short video below:

HELP!
The video is at the bottom below the pics of belt and blower

Thanks,

I definatly agree with Klangford...:neener:

No an SC should not scream like that, especially at idle. Sounds like something didn't have proper lubrication for some reason.

I thought it was kind of odd that you would post it in the Off-topic forum. :flipoff:

 

[Fisch330ciTopasBlau]

what kit is it. the old vortec kits made a lot of noise...but the new ones are supposed to be more stealth. ?

 

[tpzblu330ci]

I got it just before it started jumping around :thumbup:

 

[playinJ30]

shouldn't startle you or make you worry.. they are supposed to be fairly quiet.. definitely something wrong.. maybe something in the airways or a belt is phucked up or something isn't lubricated properly

 

[carguy84]

It's the Vortech SQ which I thought meant Super Quiet

How about I try to give you a real answer for a change.

Check and make sure that the belt tension is up to the spec (of the SC manufacter) and that the belt is installed correctly on the pulleys.
Its the tension most likely.
If not, try to pin point the noise, if its coming from the SC unit then you just might have a "bad one". :sad:

Can I drive the car sometime? :tongue:

wheres that post comparing his hair with jim carry's, when u need it??? "you are a coc k sucker ha ha haaaaaaaaaa"

 

[BimmerPhan]

It took the shop 2 months to install it? Is that what you're saying? Where did you get it installed? They dont sound like they know what they're doing, if they give it to you making noise like that (or if it took 2 months to get it installed).

I totally agree with that one. Hope u only paid them for 16 hrs of labor.

mc, I think the whole world has gone mad....lolol.

The install takes about 3 days of off an on, I couldn't get a shop to do it for 2 months.

I'm still waiting for the ECU to be shipped back from the UK, the car hasn't even fired up yet...this post was an attempt at April Fools humor...:lmao:
