supercharger bearing noise, tensioner noise vibration???

I have a few questions about my supercharged double cab tacoma.
Sometimes at idle, the engine almost has like a diesel like sound to it. Could this be a bad bearing?
Secondly, after warming up, I am hearing a squealing noise from the tensioner. I can see at idle that it is vibrating and when I press on the throttle the vibrating smoothes out and the squeal is gone. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Can't tell you, but your best bet is to call magnuson and describe it to them. Don't bother asking TRD becuase they don't know a damn thing. There is a tech named Kevin over there that has been more than helpful when I was having issues w/ my charger.-good luck

It's probably just coupler noise; about $30 and an hour of your time.
