Loud engine at idle
Hey guys.. got a question.. not to sure what it is..
I got a 2006 SS/SC has about 14000 kms on it
I just put my intake in couple days ago and i got a check engine light on, on my way home from work.
Also.. My car sounds really loud at IDLE? i pop the hood and it sounds really bad..
any ideas?
All i have is an intake.. but I also found it loud before the intake as well.. Could it be Lifters?? or something with the supercharger??
I know what my 1998 z24 sounded like with bad lifters.. but i can;t tell if its coming from the head or the supercharger..
any ideas.. let me know.. thanks

The real questions, is what kind of noise is it? Popping, rattling, grinding, scraping, knocking...describe the sound, and someone may be able to give you a better idea on what exactly is causing it.
Also, my car give a little shake when turning it off, too. That much is totally normal, especially if you have a torque brace and / or mounts.

Did it start when you put the intake on?
You might want to check all your piping and make sure all your connections are tight. I know you have the S/c but when I added my cai to my 2.2 it was really loud, but it was supposed to be after that.
