While disassembling my Elbow, TB, and UIM I have removed this gem, which appears to be some type of check or dumby valve. Can anyone tell me what this is and maybe where the adapter goes?

Thanks,
Jim

Looks like a pressure sensor, maybe for a boost gauge?

Side note, maybe you shouldn't remove things from you engine bay without knowing what they are or where they go.

Well I guess I could start the car and see if it my gauge reads vacuum to figure that out.
Looks like I'll go give that a try.

Apex'i/Denso 3 bar MAP sensor with in-line filter. It should plug into your factory pressure sensor harness plug actually. That's the Amp EconoSeal II 3 pin female connector: http://www.bmotorsports.com/shop/pro...oducts_id/1676

It looks like the map sensor for an Apex AVCR boost controller to me
