rats nest question

I have tried to ask this question before. I didn't have a pic but now I do. What is this breather for. The hose diagram on the web has an m/t next to this breather. The guys at mazduh had no idea what i was talking about. (what a suprise) It is at the front of the rack. Thanks in advance.

This may sound really stupid, but mine fell off a while back and I can't find it. Will it hurt my car not having it on. Can you put it on without tearing into the car too much. Thanks

Yeah, I've heard that getting rid of nonseq will get rid of a majority of the rats nest. I was told your boost comes in bit later, but it is much stronger since you're using both turbos at the same time rather than one after another.

Thanks for all your help. A picture says a thousand words. I want to go non-seq, just havn't had the time to read up on it. Is there a nice (not ghetto) way of doing it. Can someone guide me to a good thread to read up? Thanks again
