An on-board inert gas generation system provides first and second compressors in fluid communication with one another. The second compressor includes an inlet and an outlet. The inlet is in fluid communication with the first compressor. The second compressor is the final compressor stage of the system. An air separation module is fluidly connected to the outlet of the second compressor by a passageway. A vent passage is arranged between the outlet and the air separation module for venting fluid between the outlet and air separation module. The vent passage enables the flow from the second compressor to be increased thereby increasing compressor efficiency and increasing the inlet pressure to the air separation module, which enables use of a smaller air separation module.
