Supercharger wine gone????

I have 2006cobaltss/sc and the only mod is a K&N Typhoon cai. I have noticed today that the wine has gone I fear something is wrong with supercharger but it makes the same boost and drives normal. Any ideas??? Please help

I have never heard of the supercharger "loosing" its wine.... Is the car just as powerful as before?

The cai does open the sound with the supercharger. When the filter is clogged, it will act as a silencer. It will dull or tone down the sound. I can't believe that the power feels the exact same though.

The cobalt will be perfectly fine on stage 2. Also it's warrntyed so if anything goes wrong they will fix it. Well they are supposed too.

Find someone local to you that will give you a good, yet inexpensive tune, and that will help you to install the Pulley system and injectors that you are going to order from one of our fine Supporting Vendors. It'll save you A LOT of money.
