An exhaust system for an off road vehicle includes a main intake pipe running in a generally longitudinal direction on the vehicle, receiving gasses from a first intake pipe for a forward cylinder and from a second intake pipe for a rearward cylinder of an mid-mounted internal combustion engine. A catalytic converter receives gasses from the main intake pipe. Instead of being mounted longitudinally, the catalytic converter extends in a transverse direction, at the rearward end of the exhaust system, behind the axis of the rear wheels. A muffler, located over the axis of the rear wheels, also extends in a transverse direction and receives gasses from the catalytic converter. The muffler outputs the gasses through a tailpipe, which is preferably above and extends wider than the main intake pipe.

A silencer for an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle having a turbocharger and a charge air cooler is provided. The silencer includes a turbocharger module with a passage duct. An inlet interface is fastened to an outlet connector of the turbocharger of the internal combustion engine. An outlet interface of the turbocharger module is fastened one or more modules configured as a resonator module and/or a charge air cooler module. An outlet interface of the module most remote from the outlet connector of the turbocharger is fastened to an inlet interface of a feed line for the charge air cooler of the internal combustion engine.

Methods and systems for restricting movement in a flow mixer of an exhaust duct, the flow mixer having a first row of flutes and a second row of flutes generally opposite to the first row of flutes, each flute being elongated and defining an elongated axis. At least two flute ties connect, or couple, together at least two flutes from the first row of flutes and at least two flutes from the second row of flutes. A retainer is coupled to the flute ties and extends generally perpendicularly to the elongated axis of each of the flutes from the first and second rows of flutes. The combination of the retainer and flute ties is configured to generally restrain relative movement between the flutes from the first row and the flutes from the second row.

An engine device for an unmanned flying apparatus that provides good weight balance for the flying apparatus; cancels the gyroscopic effect; and has auto rotating propellers. The engine device includes a first cylinder and a second cylinder arranged horizontally and opposed to each other, and pistons within the cylinders advance and retract in opposite directions to each other; a first crankshaft and a second crankshaft arranged in the vertical direction, driven by the first cylinder and the second cylinder, respectively, and rotate in opposite directions; a first centrifugal clutch and a second centrifugal clutch rotate in opposite directions to each other; a final drive shaft transmitting rotational force to a gear mechanism comprising orthogonal transform gears, to rotate a propeller shaft; a one-way clutch arranged between the first crankshaft, the second crankshaft and the final drive shaft, and driven by both the first crankshaft and the second crankshaft.

A snowmobile includes a frame, at least one ski, handbars operatively coupled to the at least one ski, and an engine assembly comprising an engine and an exhaust manifold. The exhaust manifold includes at least a first inlet, a first outlet, and a second outlet. The first inlet is configured to connect to a first exhaust port. The first outlet is connected to provide exhaust received from the first inlet to a first exhaust path and the second outlet is connected to provide exhaust received from the first inlet to a second exhaust path.
