    I had my TRD superchrger installed this week. When I start the truck, it sounds like its knocking at 1st. once it get going it sounds normal though. When I turn it off it sounds loud too.

    Is this normal?

    I mean, are you sure you're not just hearing the blower rattle? That's pretty normal.

    is the noise coming from the supercharger? I am pretty sure this is normal. My Dad’s truck and my truck are supercharged and they both do it. I looked it up and it’s something about the balance being slightly off at low rpms.

    If it sounds like marbles in a dryer, that's just the blower.

    Upload the video to youtube and post the link here. Most likely if the truck runs fine when driving you are probably hearing the blower rattle

    Yeah everyone does it the first month or so when you're like "WHAT IS THAT SOUND I JUST GOT THIS THING". You get used to it. Welcome to the money pit.

    If it bothers you take the SC off and send it to me, I will dispose of it properly for you...

    I figured out the problem for the louder noise a couple weeks ago. The mechanic that installed my TRD SC over torqued the crankshaft pulley to 270ft/lbs instead of 270 newton/meter. The crankshaft pulley was cracked and started leaking oil. He replaced the pulley. Sounds better now
