Today I was busy wrapping my extractors with heat shield wrap.

To improve access I took part of the air intake off. I was wondering if anyone could explain what purpose this chamber on the side serves. Dose it swirl the air to remove moisture. But there's no drain.
I don't know, just curious if someone could explain.

It's like a storage chamber of fresh air so when you boot it the engine has a small supply air already filtered..
Also aids in intake noise..
So really..
A waste of space lol

I've still got mine on, so if I was to remove it would it make any difference good or bad?

Dont remove it. They are designed like that for a reason and for the most part work very well.

Ok it stays then. Lucky tho, every time I open the bonnet and see it I'm tempted to take it off. One job not need doing.

Oh ok mine obviously doesn't have one. I'd say due to the gas conversion

Could be depending on the system used and how it was installed..
