supercharger squeel
Ok guys I am going to try and explain this the best I can. I am vortech supercharged, and this morning when I started my car there was a noise coming from the engine bay. So I popped the hood and It sounded like a hampster wheel that has a creek in it every time it makes a revolution, and it sounded like it was coming from the actual blower. This has happened twice before but has gone away the next day.
So I am not sure if the belt needs to be tightened or what, I dont have a boost guage so i cant see if I am loosing boost. Has anyone experienced anything like this or have an Idea what it could be? I was going to make a video of it the last time it was making that noise it went away
anyways thanks in advance

You can test the belt for the correct tightness. Grab it in the middle between 2 convenient pulleys (that you can reach) and try to twist it 90 degrees. If you can do it easily, you need it tightened.
You main shaft bearing could also be going.

Have you recently washed your car or engine bay? Sometimes I'll hear a squeal coming from some pulley under the hood after I wash the car. After the car has been running for awhile it goes away.
