Air intake elbow under snorkel

Just gathering opinions on this one.... leave the elbow tube connecting the snorkel to the resonator under the battery connected or remove it. Air intake's all stock.

keep it connected, it brings cool air in from above your radiator. unless you want some noise then disconnect it, it might give you a little growl effect.

I just took mine out the other day. There's no opening. I believe its used for pressure.

I took all that out when I removed my snorkel when I was still stock. As stated above, it has no opening.
