Blower whine just got louder on my paxton, I wonder why?

[oufan2929]

After some spirited driving the other night, I noticed my blower get a bit louder(just at cruising speeds, not at idle or at wot). Not by much, and there's no issues w/the car, I was just wondering what would cause this. Any ideas?--Thanks--Andy

Blower whine is great, my daily driver is s/c and I love it.

I can't imagine what that feels like on a Viper though

Bearings, oil deprivation, or tensioner. Or it could just be the weather! Hopefully its just the latter.

Have you checked the pre filter on the S/C when you change the oil? Maybe it is restricting some flow to the S/C. Be careful with this as it is brass and can crack if not supported well when tightening and loosening. Also do not over tighten it!

Hey Mark, thanks for the reply! Where on the head unit is the pre filter? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks--Andy

it is what the oil supply line screws into

Yes it is where the braided line goes in. The brass fitting is in 2 parts and the filter is closest to the head unit.
