    I drive a '97 GTP, and this morning it started making a very loud buzzing/humming sound when I accelerate.
    Also the boost sensor on the dash is not showing any boost.
    The belts look fine under the hood, but that's all I really know to look for.
    The blower motor stopped working for my fans a few weeks ago, but I don't think that would be the cause.
    Is it a bad idea to drive like this? What could be wrong?

    Remove one belt at a time to see if the noise goes away.

    If it's gone with the supercharger belt off, then inspect all those pulleys for problems.

    Same with the other belt if the s/c isnt the problem.

    The lego bricks on the dash could be another problem, but figure the first one out first.
