I was thinking of putting a new air intake on my car and noticed that my stock air intake has 2 tubes connected to it. While i was looking at aftermarket intakes i noticed that they only had 1 tube connected to it. What is that tube and should i find an air intake with that estra tube or not? thanks

One of the tubes go to the block. It is a breather hose and *you do need it!*. The other one is completely useless, just plug up the hole with something to prevent water from getting in.

Broken Record here Your stock intake should have a control diagphragm that will become useless as Aces said just plug it up and make sure the hose doesn't get wrapped in anything.

depending on where you live, breathers are illegal. if anything just get a catch can.
