    Since I was talking about my application, that includes the installation of a supercharger, (in which case this part is abandoned) in relation to his application, which is normally aspirated, I was assuming that the "apples & oranges" comparo was understood...

    Hey guys ... lookie ... the Peanut Butter Kid made a funny ... God bless his little heart.

    I guess I deserved it tho after the way I titled that one pic for Moncha's frame.

    BTW, I don't know what that canister is either but I doubt it would cause any damage to bypass it.

    I am 99% sure that is called the "EVAP can". I remember some argument with the emissions guy about it not being there after the SC install.

    On the emissions diagram under the hood it is shown, and you will fail the visual emissions check without it. But as for what it does... I don't have a clue
    2001 Ironman Daily Driver... 3.5" suspension lift (OME912 springs and 1" spring spacer), ball joint flip, 1.5" front diff. drop, 33"x12.5 TrXus MT, 16x10 Eagle Alloy rims, Interceptor, PV muffler, K&N air filter, Alpine Supercharger, Bilstein shocks, and some trimming.

    2000 Ironman Project LS-1 VX... very slow progress but someday....... ohhhhh someday......

    Well,here in NYC they don't perform a visual emission check,actually they don't even lift the hood for any reason but more likely the safety one.
