Newb stock airbox q

I was just wondering what the two ? marks in my awesome paint pic is? Just out of curiosity, I have a hunch that the nr. 1 is exhaust for the airpump system but the nr. 2 one I have no idea.

Dude, what are you talking about? This is a very interesting piece of abstract. I personally enjoyed his use of contemporary
style in conjuction with post century proggressive movement.

The elbow pointing to nowhere helps muffle the sounds from the ACV bypass. Here is a photo showing things from the inside. There is a divider wall to keep the L-shaped chamber separate from the rest of the airbox. The divider wall on my airbox detached from the chamber and was covering the hole for the primary turbocharger... the car didn't make much boost when that happened.
