A TBB is a Throttle Body Boot, it connects the Y pipe to the throttle body. It is just about the highest failure item on the car. You have an aftermarket one that should never fail. It's the big black pipe entering your throttle body shaped like an upside down Y.

Yeah, it replaces about 5 pieces of plastic and rubber, saves you about 450 bucks, can't remember the exact price, one of the smartest mod's you can do to the S4
