Theres this thing connected to the air intake hose that is near the throttle body. What is it and what does it do? It seems to only be on ST models and not the GT. Ever pic that I seen with an intake does not have that triangular box thing. The reason i ask cuz i want to put an intake in my ST but dont want to touch it fearing its something important. Heres a pic:

its an intake resonator designed to...
muffle the intake sound
reduce the ear peircing sound of air hissing past a closed throttle
to look goofy and make you ask this question tongue.gif


you can take it off and plug it, but it wont have ANY affect on performance.
