Are our chargers 3rd or 4th gen?

If you look at the "exit port" of the new 4th gen blowers, you can see they did away with the small triangle opening with two oval-ish holes on the outsides.

I am contemplating purchasing a new blower, or just modifying my current one and opening up the exit port like on those new ones. It seems to me, that the more you open that area up, the less restriction/compression the air will have. Thus, reducing the temperature of the air into the intake plenum.

Also, this flows into the DOMESTIC side of things but bear with me... Take a look at a V8 intake manifold, say, built by Edelbrock. The air comes in through the carb. sitting on top of the intake manifold. Well, if you look, Edelbrock machines in some kind of "spreader" to allow the air to fill the intake manifold equally without turbulence. Id say this could be incorporated into the JRSC manifold.

Whoops, guess im spilling out all my ideas/secrets here.....o well, just dont tell anybody! [img]redface.gif[/img]

the whole inlet / housing looks to be reshaped , but the intergration and internalization of the bypass valve is most interesting . this could streamline the intake manifold design signifigantly and makes the possibility of relocating the blower . our jrsc eatons are 2nd or 3rd generation depending on when the kits were put together .
