A shunt pulsation trap for a Roots supercharger reduces pulsation, NVH and improves efficiency without significantly increasing overall size of the supercharger. Generally, a Roots supercharger with the shunt pulsation trap has a pair of interconnected and synchronized parallel multi-helical-lobe rotors housed in a transfer chamber with the same number of lobes for propelling flow from a suction port to a discharge port of the transfer chamber without internal compression. The shunt pulsation trap comprises an inner casing as an integral part of the transfer chamber, and an outer casing oversized surrounding the inner casing, therein housed various pulsation dampening means or pulsation energy recovery means or pulsation containment means, at least one injection port (trap inlet) branching off from the transfer chamber into the pulsation trap chamber and a feedback region (trap outlet) communicating with the supercharger outlet pressure.
