the thing that sits below your air box. it is pretty much under your car and has a hard plastic hose that comes up and connects into the stock air box. what does this thing do? is it neccassary to have? can you relocate?

 

is it your n75 valve

Hmmm, a 1.8 a4, with a thing that looks like a motor that blows air and has a big hose that comes from your air intake box....

Nope, not a clue what it could be

 

ok i guess i shouldnt describe it as a motor but as a container of some sort. it sits right in that space below the turbo and intercooler piping. it is below the cars structure when u take the stock air box out. i know a picture would help but really there is too many things in the way to show it and i have no camera. its a 01 so i know these cars are alot diff than just all the other years considering they had the most hp for the b5 platform.

 

Are you talking about this???



If so, that is the air conditioner receiver drier. And just because your engine has 20 more hp doesn't mean it is much different. It is essentiall the same engine.

no its not the a/c canister. its completely a black plactic cansiter. it has a tube that looks like loom...but if im looking at that pic it is right behind the canister to the right. its behind that support though. i know they arent much diff man just a few things r thats all i was gettin at hense the reason y u guys cant tell me what this thing is
