The bifurcated conduit includes an upstream end configured to receive intake air, a downstream end configured to supply intake air to the compressor side inlet, an inner passage configured to supply intake air to the downstream end, and an outer passage disposed about the inner passage and separated from the inner passage by an inner wall, the outer passage configured to selectively receive recirculation backflow from the compressor side inlet. A port is fluidly coupled between the outer passage and another location of the vehicle. The port is configured to selectively evacuate at least a portion of the recirculation backflow to the another location the vehicle.
