Abstract: A forced induction device includes a compressor wheel, a housing, and an intake insert. The compressor wheel has an inducer diameter and an exducer diameter. The housing includes a housing cover member having a central portion and a housing intake portion extending from the central portion. The central portion defines a compressor cavity in which the compressor wheel rotates and having a cavity inlet diameter larger than the inducer diameter. The intake insert defines a conduit extending therethrough from a proximal end to a distal end of the intake insert. The proximal end is received by the housing intake portion with the conduit in fluidic communication with the compressor cavity. At the proximal end, the conduit the conduit has a proximal inner diameter that is less than cavity inlet diameter and the inducer diameter, and the distal end is configured to connect to a coupling portion of an air source.
