Default Vortech vibration

Does anyone who has a vortech supercharger, feel a lot of vibration between 4,500 rpm and 5,000 rpm.

I am just curious because it seems abnormal to me.

It feels like some crazy harmonic vibration or something.

See here is the problem. I have never been in another vortech supercharged S. So I don't know any different.


I know these blowers are noisy but I just don't know what is normal and what is not.


And the vibration seems aparant only in first and second gear.




Yeah it is kind of creepy huh

It seems like the whole motor and supercharger. The only way to explain the noise is this.

If you were to get in my car and not no anything about it and close your eyes and not look at this dash and hear it you would think that the car is nearing redline when you are at the 45 to 5 rpm range.


After 5,000 rpm I'm in there like swim wear and it sounds great.

I could be wrong...just wait for someone else to chime in.

why I don't think it is that is because this.

The Vtec plate has cracked a couple times and after further inspection I found out that the bottom support bracket was not there so it wasn't being supported and in turn cracking the vtec block. The whole time that the bracket was missing the vibration was not there.

After I put in that bracket I fell the vibration again.

I don't know lol

well...you have your answer then!!!

it is kinda hard to tell from someones explanation over the net.

I originally thought about something to do with the brackets but thought you would've noticed something if it was that...
