    I have a 2000 GP GT with a top swap done recently and I am getting a squeaking noise, which sounds like its coming from the idler pulley. I put my hand on the idler while it was running and there was a lot of vibration. The squeaking gets a little louder when I accelerate. I had this noise when I first did the top swap, but it went away after several start ups. The dyno shop put a stethoscope around that area checking the snout and idler pulley and he said it sounded like the idler. Does this sound like a bad idler pulley? Possibly resulting in my low boost issue?

    I replaced both tensioners since they had a lot of vibration, and thinking one of them were squeaking. STILL have the squeaking. What else could this be? Snout?

    kind of sounds like when the squeal happens there is loss of boost? sounds like the belt is slipping and the charged is not spinning if no boost or low boost, id say something with the charger itself. or something def wrong in the sc belt pulleys

    Well today I took off the supercharger belt and started it. No squeaking. I did not some play when turning the pulley by hand. So coupler? I put a new 1 on about 2 months ago when I put the supercharger on.
