Air intake and exhaust systems for a snowmobile engine

A snowmobile has a frame including a tunnel having a passage therethrough, at least one ski, an engine having an engine air inlet and an engine exhaust outlet, and a drive track operatively connected thereto and disposed at least partly below the tunnel around a rear suspension. A heat exchanger connected to the tunnel has heat exchanger engine air inlet and outlet, a cooling air inlet and a cooling air outlet fluidly connected between the cooling air inlet and the passage. A snowmobile has a pipe fluidly connected to the exhaust outlet and having first and second pipe outlets. The snowmobile further has a muffler having first and second muffler inlets and a muffler outlet, a turbocharger, first and second exhaust flow passages, and a valve disposed between the pipe and the first muffler inlet for selectively controlling the flow of exhaust gas flowing through the first exhaust flow path.

Snowmobile Ski Bumper and Methods for Using Same
20200255093 · 2020-08-13 · ·

A replacement bumper for a snowmobile ski is provided and methods for using the same. The replacement bumper has an abutment surface that makes contact with a spindle of a snowmobile in order to increase the contact surface area of a rear portion of a snowmobile ski and the ground and/or increase the weight being distributed on the rear portion of the snowmobile ski, which prevents the darting or tracking of the snowmobile ski. Also, includes is a method for removing an OEM bumper from a snowmobile ski assembly and installing a replacement bumper into said snowmobile ski assembly.
