UPDATE: I followed James advice and popped off the serpentine belt this morning and low and behold the noise completely went away. So I apologize for questioning Pelican's engineering I'm certainly glad they offer their IMS bearing. I didn't have too miuch time to dig on the source of the noise but it seems to be ether the alternator or the AC compressor. The AC this year has taken a significant amount more power to operate than before, so much so you have to make a conscience thought to use more revs when starting so that could be it. There is no noise change when the AC kicks on though. Oh and thanks for offer to meet me at Delta V Jeff. I spoke to Glenn last night I'll have to call everything off this morning. How are the PCA autocrosses going, I'm sorry I'm not there to...um...have you beat me again.
