It's looks like a 12v relay. I've used one similar to wire in electric fans so that they can be used with a temp sensor and turn on at a certain temp

i agree with the noise filter even tho i do not know what it is and what is effected by it but every supra i have seen has it.

what are the cons of removing it?
also what are the pros of having it?

i see igniter and a check connector but i do not see a noise filter. still i would like to know exactly what it does? is it like an alternative to a sheilded wire or something? just telling me that it goes to the igniter doesn't really tell me anything other that IT GOES TO THE IGNITER.

i just posted up the diagram
go to the next page.

The noise filter will remove unwanted “noise” Electronic noise is a characteristic of all electronic circuits. Depending on the circuit, the noise generated by electronic devices, they might be interpreted as a signal from the ECU to fire the coils resulting in miss fire and other drivability problems.

just leave it be.

definitely a noise filter. when I first got my car running I was having throttle problems and noticed one of the wires coming out of this device was broken, so I called up my local dealership and read off the p/n hoping this would be my fix and he told me it was a noise filter. said it was for the stereo which seemed weird because of it's location. ians13 sounds more believable

Now that I know it's a noise filter it makes sense...

It kinda sorta is for your stereo and other things....without it you'd hear buzzing in your speakers that will get louder/faster as your rpms rise.
