haha dude i just removed that today! if you remove it it makes a small turbo sound! its an air silencer or air relief basically silences the sound when the air intake takes air or when the smog pump or air pump dumps all the air out

+1 it's a baffle to quiet the air that the air pump discharges when it's not needed...
Now I don't know everything but i'm pretty sure there is a section on this forum called the TECH SECTION for these kind of questions...there's also a little online manual called a Factory Service Manual and a SEARCH function for basic information such as that air baffle for the air pump system...

LOL @ Slpin I bought it with the Pass. side smashed and the O.G. S4 bumper was beat to hell so I got a S5 off Ebay cause they said it was off a 87 lol (MY FIRST ROTARY)!!! I got it as straight as I could but when I was staying in Vegas all the time instead of hear and there like I am now, I drifted it and hit a few things I got it as straight as I could under there LOL! This is my 2nd Pass. side fender that's on there now. No power wand drifting with DTSS and powerstreering had it where I couldnt feel my car so need less to say shes coming along I just need to pull a few dents another Pass side fender, hood, Top (SHES A VERT) and front S5 bumper then she will be ready for paint and not the rattle can thats on her now!!!
