Well, now I know where the butterfly valve is and what it does. Always something new to learn. At least I got a good laugh from the fella who kept asking where it was on the 7MGTE and the other guy told him like 3 times THERE IS NONE. Funny man, real funny. Thanks again for coming through for me Mr.Nickleye.

yes all that big barrel shaped thing is is a resonator, keeps sounds from coming out of the engine.
while on the subject, will that also play a role in the acis? i read acis had to do with sound coming from the valves and the timing of the acis to create a supercharger affect, am i correct so far? so if the resonator is to keep sounds from coming out of the engine via the intake, would that interupt the process of the acis? i may be way out in left field but just curious. sorry /rabbit trail

Yes....way out in left field. Resonator intake is to dampen the sound of the air rushing in when accelerating.
ACIS, as you read in the thread I mentioned in the search function, is for increased torque at low rpm, and then increased air flow at high rpm.
