Default Anyone Know???

Anyone know what this plug is for. and where it plugs in?
Looks to me like it is a resistor for an air fuel mixture when it is cold. There is one downstream from it whith the same plug. Just wondering if it was one that came with the aftermarket intake and I don't need it.
Car runs fine without it.
Thanks

Its in the place for an aftermarket air flow sensor, and the unplugged end seems to be right where the stock one is. If other more knowledgeable people agree, I would get rid of it, because you seem to have a split intake, and I think it would need to "see" all the air like the stock one does. Looks like a previous owner made a mistake, don't think a manufacturer would do that.

Others may know more, since I have never worked with kind of intake,

AIT extension cable for relocating the sensor. A mod that suppose to increase HP by sensing colder air entering intake. It would be a safe guess that previous owner installed it as I never seen it sold as part of the dual intake. The mod is not worth it so leave the AIT where it is and don't mess with the one on the intake, best thing is to remove it and plug the hole.
