Engine bay of a red car fitted with a centrifugal supercharger: the polished blower head and its drive pulley feed a large intake tube into a cast intake plenum, with a red conical open-element air filter mounted low on the inlet. An aluminum intercooler or heat exchanger and a black relay/module box sit alongside, with blue-banded couplers and a wiring loom running across the bay.
