Ive just been searching "16576P - DUCT ASSY-AIR" and it seems that its on plenty of nissan cars and is called the same part number even though its slightly different on each different model. But still couldnt find out what it actually does lol apart from the obvious

yeh mate, I have been searching away and came to the same conclusion that it was on plenty of Nissan's and they varied in design.

I assume by the design it interrupts the air flow for some reason, think only Nissan knows what it was designed for *L*

thanks youve been very helpfull

[Parksy]

Haha yep I have one. Thanks all for the responses. I was thinking about replacing that flexible portion of hose for something abit more streamline and was also thinking about changing the "duct assy air" for something also abit more streamline, but I'm guessing its there for a reason so might just leave it.

Pretty sure those things are resonators which are there to create some sort of pulsed airflow into the engine. Have removed one before on a ford Fairlane (302) and it wouldn't even idle without it. I could be wrong but that's my best guess.
