Please help identify this mystery box above the ECU

Can someone please help me identify this mystery box above the ECU
in the pic below ?
It's highlighted in yellow.
I don't know for sure if I found the right part in the FPM or not.
There is a resistor box listed in that general location,
but it looks different. If anyone has one for sale please PM me.

Thanks !

So it is a resistor box of sorts.
Theres a part listed in the FPM in "engine bay parts" instead of the "interior parts"
section that looks like it might be this part. I can't find it anywhere else.

Thanks for your help.

the box senses when certain things are turned on in the car and then increases the engine speed to compensate for the load by sending a signal to the ecu.

So if I turn my interior lights, the aircon and the radio on, I can go faster, right?
