Secondary air injection unit?
Warms the CAT up when you start the engine, its for emissions and there are no gains from removing it

I dont know exactly but so many people have them blanked off and are fine with MOT's its only a tiny bit of emissions that it accounts for IIRC, someone will correct me if I am wrong though
