You might of sucked a rock or screw in the supercharger?
Are you getting into boost at all? If so might be a bad tank of gas and causing detonation.

Detonation, sounds like marbles in a can. Get a tune or kaboom.
Oh yea check your plugs and see if its too late.

If it is only doing it when you let off then I doubt that it is pre-detonation. Under decel you just don't have the load in the cylinders to cause it imo. I would look towards the blower. I am not saying that pre-detonation is not 100% the problem, but it just sounds out of character to me.

As I rev the engine like to 3500rpm it makes the noise. when the car is on sitting there you don't hear it. The sound comes from the front of the supercharger like a bearing or something not sure from the pulley. Its an eaton all stock.

Ya know,almost sounds like a idler/idler bearing that`s bad or going bad.That kinda explains the noise when there`s a load on them.

Could be a lot of things since sound can travel thru the engine. Could even be a spun bearing. But try taking the serp belt off and running it and see if it still makes the noise.
