Whats the difference between the 2nd and 3rd fen Acura comptech superchargers?
I bought a comptech supercharger for my 08 acura tl s auto. How do I know if this is for the 3rd gen? Some people online are saying it's for the 2nd gen. There's no website I can search the serial number since they went out of business or can I? Any help would be appreciated it !!!

From the first picture, it appears you have a 3G kit. I only say that based on the wider look of the S/C'er drive pulley.
Measure the drive shaft of the S/C'er unit to make sure, hopefully it is 19.75" as indicated below.

There also appears to be what looks like a DBW throttle body connected to the input side of the S/C'er manifold, so that can be a good indication, if correct?
The CT-E acm looks to be for a 3G as well.
