A snowmobile includes a forward frame assembly defining an engine bay. An engine is positioned within the engine bay. The engine has a plurality of intake ports positioned on an aft side of the engine and a plurality of exhaust ports positioned on a forward side of the engine. An air intake system has at least one air inlet and a plurality of air outlets. The air intake system is coupled to the aft side of the engine such that each of the air outlets is configured to provide air to one of the intake ports. An exhaust system has a plurality of exhaust inlets and at least one exhaust outlet. The exhaust system is coupled to the forward side of the engine such that each of the exhaust inlets is configured to receive exhaust from one of the exhaust ports.
