warranty work/if it keeps going its a lemon

well i took my car in for warranty work and they gave me a loaner which was cool. the car went in for a new supercharger and a new shifter. well the shifter is nice however the new supercharger sounds louder then before. the old one sounded like a rock tumbler at low speeds, now it sounds like a rock tumber at higher speeds comming from the housing......... my question is is the supercharger suppose to make any kind of noise besides its wine? i mean it sounds like a rock tumber with some nice smooth stones in it and its freakin loud when the car is at idle. what do you guys think? i cant do anything to it till tomorrow.

Everyone here is parinoid, superchargers like ours make noise.

And for a car to be a lemon it would have to need much more than a S/C or shifter.

My car has had this replaced so far:
- Clutch, Slave Cylinder and Flywheel
- Wheels
- Front bumper painted
- Left Drivehsaft Seal
- Boost Gauge

Could be worse darksun is up to almost 19,000 in warranty work,
rebuild tranny, replaced casing, 4 clogged cats, one broken axle, 2 blown s/c gaskets, leaking IC pump, popped intercooler in manifold, coil spark jumping, and more... just off the top of my head.
