An intake system for a vehicle engine includes an air cleaner and a plurality of throttle bodies. The air cleaner encases an air cleaner element in an air cleaner housing for filtering air flowing from an unfiltered air chamber to a filtered air chamber of the air cleaner housing. The throttle bodies control the amount of air supplied from the filtered air chamber to a cylinder head. Operating noise of the throttle bodies is minimized by situating the throttle bodies within the air cleaner housing. Operating noise of fuel injectors associated with the throttle bodies is minimized by situating the fuel injectors within the air cleaner housing.
