Trace the wire (it's actually a vac pipe) back to the throttle body, disconnect the red pipe and put a screw in the hole so it's blocked off.

You can either:
Block the hole off where the red pipe goes at the throttle body
or
You can leave the red pipe on but block the end that you've taken off your airbox.
It's your choice.
