That noise is definately the signature of a ProCharger for ya! They sound like gravel is spinning around inside of the blower. Everyone told me it was normal.

My D-1SC sounds like that too when its lower at idle, I idle around 1000, so you don't hear it as much....

Welcome to FI. I rmemeber my first drive. Felt better than the day i drove her off the lot. What a rush! Let us know if you have any troubles. Be sure to get that thing tuned soon. Do you have edit? If so, adjust your IFR table for your new injectors and pull your timing back a few degress till you can get on a dyno.

Congrats on the new blower. Welcome to the club

Mike
