    Hey guys new to the forum and I just have a few questions if anyone can lend a hand.

    First of all I have a squeak in the right front kind of sounds like something is rubbing on the rotor, thing is it only does it when I'm braking and while I'm driving when the wheel is turned maybe 5-10 degrees to the right. Any further to the right it doesn't happen and going straight and to the left it doesn't do it.

    Also, it's only ever happened twice to me but sometimes when I step on it (excuse the childish explanation) instead of the whine of the supercharger (WHAAAAA) it does almost like a fluttering, like a (WHA WHA WHA). Could that be belt slip? Or something else something can think of. For the record I'm running a 3.4 pulley.

    1. Inspect brake pads and dust shield. See what may be touching.

    2. Do you have supporting mods for that 3.4 pulley??

    If not, you might be knocking hard core and causing it to act funny or it's got a misfire. Hard to say exactly.

    Yeah I believe so, I've studied the how to safely modify your 3800 by blueguy religiously and I've knocked pretty much everything off that list for the 3.4 Except for the intercooler which is coming very soon. Also how reliable are the aeroforce gauges? I have one and the most I have ever seen was high 3 or 4 degrees of kr at wot. But yeah I just did all four corners of brakes last fall so I'll be for sure taking it apart again and checking that out.
