New superchargers out?

I am probably crazy, but these look different from the one I have.
I do have the 2nd S/C, not the white one, but these look "off".
They all are for the 3.4, and mainly compare pics one and three.

This on looks more black and just weird.

And this has TRD USA label on it on it, but it looks like the one I have. After-market stick on maybe.

And they both look different than the one I have.

I am no expert but my understanding is that there are serveral "generations" of 3.4L Superchargers.

1st Gen is the white/gray one, 2nd, 3rd? ,4th? Gen are the black ones. I don't know exactly as to the differences. It's mentioned like this before around here, I have never found any hard knowledge of this.

Gadget certainly knows the most, once he weighs in the truth shall be known.

I was under the impression that there were only two. The first white one, and the one that is in the third pic. The top one looks shaped differently, missing some stuff, the throttle cable bracket mount is different.

li_runner did you notice anything different?

As in TRD?

They are clearly different. Looking to see why they are different.
Is it just they way they look, or does one perform better?
Educate me all knowing one.

I have one that they called a 4th gen. It looks like the second photo. I think the only difference is the idler pulley. Not sure.
