Engine "Chirp" on initial acceleration - what is it?
When first accelerating, I hear a slight chirp from the engine - it is not the tires. Any ideas? If it is not normal, I wonder if a belt is slipping slightly.
Thanks in advance.

Its The Supercharger Clutch Engaging. You Can Shim The Clutch And The Noise Will Go Away For A While But It Will Come Back.
It Is Now Considered Normal And We Are Not Supposed To Shim It Anymore.

You may want to check out your engine bay thouroughly man. When I had the chirp, I inspected my bay, and it had a nest of sparrows living in there. It was crazy.
