what is the little black box for?

[club240sucks]

there is a little black box under the intake in between the fender and the engine bay.... what purpose does it serve?

[zanilth]

For your air intake. It has a small hole in the bottom of it, allows air flow but keeps anything else out, like dirt, rocks, mud, etc... That is what the air intake pulls from (notice the hole from the filter box directly to it, and the location...out of the engine bay, where cooler air flows.) That is what I think anyway...

So when you wreck, the police can find out what really caused the "accident"

If you are talking about the box the filter sits in its to keep water out of the intake, quite the sound that comes out the intake, and technicaly contain any flames in the event of a strong backfire...
