Well sounds like gauge is working and no vacuum leaks. Maybe the bypass valve is bad?

Is there anyway to tell if the supercharger is bad? It does kinda sound like a clucky sound from the front. buy my friends redflag has the same noise. Just a question, what would happen if the supercharger went bad>? would the car not run? or is it damage to the engine? any signs to tell if the cars tune is off?

A roots or tvs type blower would have a catastrophic failure and I doubt car would run or supercharger would turn. Can you post pics of how the vacuum lines are run including boost gauge connection.
