Where at on the engine does the supercharger fluid go?
Depending on the supercharger, it will require a special blend of synthetic oil. This synthetic oil normally is located in the supercharger itself. Most superchargers will have a hex nut located on the front of the supercharger. This area is used to drain and fill up the supercharger oil. You cannot use just any synthetic oil, you will have to use "Supercharger Oil"

Due to your supercharger not having any oil can this be why your alternator sounds strange?
No, it has nothing to do with the Alternator. However, it will make a noise similar to a bad bearing sorta like how an alternator will sound when it goes bad.

If your 1995 buick supercharger goes bad does the engine goes bad too?
Typically, no. Assuming a bearing failure or similar problem with the supercharger, you should just be able to replace it and be done. If however, there was a catastrophic failure of the supercharger, pieces of metal and debris could have been sucked into the engine and may have caused damage. You should be able to determine whether debris is present based on observation of the supercharger once it's removed and by inspecting the intake manifold just underneath.

It's best to address the problem promptly to maintain optimal vehicle performance and prevent costly repairs.
2003 xterra with a supercharger and Nissan told me i should replace it what do you think?
I think if it is not leaking oil yet, you should take it apart to see if the coupler is bad. If the coupler is bad, it is just a $34.00 part and only takes around 1 hour to replace it. Now, if your supercharger is bad, the best thing to do is to source out a rebuilt one.
