    I just top swapped my 04 gp and now it squeals pretty loud. Could it be a bad bearing in the snout of the supercharger? The noise is definitely coming from that area. Thanks,

    Mike

    If the noise is still there with the belt removed you probly have a vacuum leak.

    If the noise goes away with the belt removed it could be a few things like a bad bearing in a pulley, a belt issue, or a supercharger issue. You just need to try to isolate the issue to pinpoint it. Post back up when you are able to remove the belt and hopefully we will be able to help you more.
