secondary air inlet sensor?
after installing ms or aem intake, there's a leftover sensor for the secondary air inlet. it just hangs there group with the wiring for the MAF sensor.

what are you supposed to do with it? the instructions don't explain.

I did - depends on if you ever want to go back to stock . I asume the wire you are talking about is the VFAD actuator wire ?

It sends a signal around 5500 RPM to open your VFAD, which you just eliminated. Just twist tie it off to something.
