Default Procharger P1 question

Been raining all week here in MA so my SC 01 Z has been sitting for a week...went to start her up, and she fired up on the first try, but there is a nasty chirping coming from the car. It seems to come once with every revolution of the belt, and is not continuous...any ideas? Also, my boost gauge which usually reads -20lbs at idle (vaccum), seemed stuck on -10lbs, even when I goosed it in the garage.

I have a P1 Procharger, stock engine.

Check the supercharger pulley retaining bolt to see if it is tight enough. Does the chirping go away as the engine warms up?

The belt may have water on it since you mentioned it had been raining. Bob
