If your supercharger is an Eaton type supercharger and it is making noise that is an early indication that the supercharger might need a rebuild. A lot of times the noise is actually coming from a little coupler that is located in the inside of the supercharger. This coupler has 6 holes in it and over time these rounded holes will wear out and become an oval shape. Once it becomes oval shape the supercharger will start to make a rattle sound. If left untreated the rattle will lead to the bearings going bad and then the seals. You will then need to get a complete rebuilt done on the supercharger.

The coupler is easy to replace. You basically have to take the supercharger noise off with the 6 bolts that holds it and then once the two ends pull a part the coupler will be sitting right there. Just slide the coupler off of the pins and replace it. Then slide the two ends together and bolt it back up. You will also need to refill the supercharger with oil.

Hey man what you going to have to do is change the couple ling in the supercharger, there is 3 holes that hold it in place and for what you say they have way to much play in them, that is where that noise comes from, the misfire comes from the supercharger not engaging so this will fix the problem and is very easy to change is a no brainier so good luck, here is the web site you can buy from www.zzperformance.com/grand_prix/index.php let me know how it goes.
