Abstract
A system for reducing noise associated with a compressor of an engine system comprises an intake manifold and a resonator comprising an outlet. The resonator is coupled to, and is positioned adjacent to, the intake manifold. An outlet pipe is in fluid communication with the outlet and the compressor, and a length of the outlet pipe extends from the outlet to the compressor. Positioning the resonator adjacent to the intake manifold reduces the length of the outlet pipe so as to reduce noise associated with air flowing through the outlet pipe.
