Abstract
A product usable with a turbocharger may include a compressor wheel having an inducer section and an exducer section. Air may be collected by the inducer section and expelled by the exducer section. A cover may define a diffuser and a collection volute. The diffuser may lead away from the exducer section to the collection volute. The cover may define a collection cavity opening to the collection volute through a port and extending in an axial direction. The cover may define an inlet passage around the inducer section and the cover may include a dividing wall separating the inlet passage from the collection cavity.
