Grinding sound ? Pulley or s/c

04 R53 has a grinding sound at idle and when revving the motor. Car does not overheat. I don't own a stethescope but I can hear it loudest over the pass side intercooler inlet horn. When I listen it really does sound like its coming from the SC but I have no other symptoms, sont have a boost gauge but seems to have power. I can hear the whistle from the CAI when I flick the gas like I always have.

Do SC pulleys fail?
