Just wondering what this is

Just wondering what this is

Postby Navedude » Sat Jun 06, 2009 2:11 pm

alright, so I have finally got my solara from my uncle in cali, and me and my friend start digging around under the hood. and attached to the air intake is this white (milk jug) like thingy and its kinda just sitting there because the place where it was screwed on broke.

I was wondering if anyone knows what the heck the thing is, what its for, and if I really need it or can I just junk it.

thanks

Resonators are supposed to make power in a particular RPM range.
