Default pump
What is that tube that goes along the driver's side fender and then by the driver's side headlight there is a pump and then a filter. What is that?

It's for emissions. It's the air pump. Most people take all that out and have it tuned out. I believe it lights off the cats by pumping fresh air into the exhaust.
