Electrified air system for removing cold start aids

An intake system for use with an internal combustion engine having one or more cylinders, the intake system comprising:

• a compressor assembly having an inlet and an outlet, and wherein the outlet is configured to be in fluid communication with at least one of the one or more cylinders, wherein the compressor is adjustable between an activated configuration and a deactivated configuration;
• and
• a passageway extending between and in fluid communication with the inlet and the outlet, the passageway having a first end proximate the inlet and a second end proximate the outlet;
• a valve in operable communication with the passageway, wherein the valve is adjustable between an open configuration in which gasses may flow through the passageway, and a closed configuration in which gasses cannot flow through the passageway, and wherein the valve includes a biasing member configured to bias the valve into the closed configuration, wherein the biasing member is configured to allow the valve to change from the closed configuration to the open configuration when a predetermined pressure differential exists across the valve;
• and
• a controller in operable communication with the compressor assembly and the valve, wherein the intake system is operable in a boosted configuration, in which the first flow of gasses is directed to the at least one of the one or more cylinders of the internal combustion engine, a non-boosted configuration, in which the compressor assembly is in the deactivated configuration, and a recirculation configuration, in which the first flow of gasses is directed toward the at least one of the one or more cylinders of the internal combustion engine and to the inlet of the compressor assembly.
