In this picture, you'll notice the long air intake snorkel. About midway through that snorkel, you'll see that strange looking gold cap. In more recent models, there should be an odd pipe that goes from the bottom of that cap to a special fixture on the header/exhaust manifold. In some earlier models, like the one pictured and probably yours as well, there are those two metal pipes that you can see going into the front of the actual carburetor area. Those also come off of the headers.
In the earlier models, I believe that system was called an air induction system. In the newer ones, that odd pipe was just called a "warm air pipe"
Can't think of anything else that would be referring to, unless they are saying you need the whole stock snorkel, ie: no aftermarket carb
