what the heck is this

[chronoti]

alright my sister got the car in an accident so me and my dad were fixing the front end and well we "forgot" to put something back in for the intake .... well i dont know what this thing is it connects on the piping before the cleaner box and well it confuses the heck out of me ......

[2wickedtoyz]

it's used to muffle the sound the intake makes thats all

[chronoti]

oh ok, well next question would be can i take some piping (i hear dryer hose would work) and pipe the fitting from that to the bummper and really make a cheap not so effective CAI also block off the part thats behind the headlamp , pipe that too????

Just some advice here chronoti... lose the naked woman avatar, I'm pretty sure that won't go over very well.

i want that front bumper on my us gen2 !!

[2wickedtoyz]

sure i don't see why not, go for it. it's your car right? play with it

[atobe]

i would think the shipping cost of a bumper from aussie to the us would be way expensive

[reddog69]

since it muffles the sound, does it restrict any airflow?
and if taken off, how much louder would the throttle sound?

[chronoti]

it sounds a slight bit more deeper but i dont know if it was the k&n i thew in there at the same time since the intake sucked up the broken glass and plastic from when the head lamp broke, also which o2 sensor is the one that gives the error code p0135 on the 96 v6?

[MyNutzOnYurChin]

It's called the lower resonator.

Leave it off.

[warlock]

just leave it off, the sound will be a little bit louder but not much
you will here a hisss that is all

[2wickedtoyz]

do you guys notice how old this tread is?

[warlock]

no i didnt why was it revised? sorry

[Erbe]

its a charcoal canister...you really dont need it even if you keep ur stock intake

[2wickedtoyz]

it's a resonator not a charcoal canister. the charcoal canister is in the engine bay and has 2 small hoses on it.
