The turbocharger comprises an intake housing having an outer wall defining an intake opening therein and an inner wall positioned within the outer walls. There is a primary inlet formed within the inner wall, and an annular chamber formed between the outer wall and the inner wall. There is a member for connecting interposed the annular chamber and the primary inlet forming a secondary inlet. There is also members for reducing noise emitted from the turbocharger, the member for reducing being a passive noise reduction system including a plurality of deflector assemblies having a series of deflector fins defining a preestablished space therebetween positioned in generally axial alignment with the annular chamber. The preestablished space is determined by: spacing = (N x 104400000)/SxB Where N = number of spaces S = turbocharger speed (RPM) B = number of main blades.
