Noise attenuator for an air supply system of an internal combustion engine

1. Field of the Invention A sound attenuation system for a compressor of a direct fuel injected engine of an outboard motor comprises a discharge sound attenuator connected in fluid communication with an air distribution manifold outlet and a suction sound attenuator connected in fluid communication with the suction port of a compressor. In a typical application of the present invention, the air distribution manifold is connected in fluid communication with a discharge port of the compressor. Both the discharge sound attenuator and the suction sound attenuator can further include filter media disposed within their internal cavities.
