   Its useless mate, remove it and block up the hole in the inlet piping.
   
   The idea of it is it helps to start the engine better on cold mornings, but it doesnt work very well ifatall so its not worth replacing, many people remove them

   it puts hot air into your engine so if anything it'l make you go slower
