[QUOTE="jaxbusa, post: 15902423, member: 175253"] I did not and I’m glad you brought that up. It was 10. The bottom part of the dyno shows the boost reading through the run, which brings me to a thought I’d like to share. I have not compared the boost to similar combos without an intercooler, but it seems the boost comes on a little lazy. The boost is about 5psi at 5,000 rpm and builds 5 more in the last 1,000 rpm. I believe this to be because the supercharger now has to fill the intercooler and several extra feet of 3” pipe. It could also be because of the impeller design. Maybe someone could share their experiences. I’m also second guessing my vacuum/ oil catch can route. I have both valve cover vents routed to a catch can and then to the power pipe. I will continue to monitor it, but I think it might introduce oil into my intercooler and eventually my MAF. A solution would be to cap my power pipe barb and get a catch can with a filter on top to let it vent out of that. I also forgot to mention that, while driving to the dyno, the supercharger began to make a horrible noise. It sounded like marbles in a tin can. After closer inspection, it seemed like an idler pulley making the noise. They were all new and I used loctite and torqued to specifications. I put a tube to my ear and listened to different pulleys while the engine was running and narrowed it down to one. I took the supercharger bracket off and found this: [ATTACH=full]1486737[/ATTACH] It was hitting the supercharger case. [ATTACH=full]1486738[/ATTACH] I don’t know why it didn’t do it initially. It was still tightly bolted down. All of the pulleys have a slight wobble to them. I filed the case and all is well.
