        I'm trying to figure out what that contraption bolted to the valve cover is supposed to do.

        Edit: Maybe it's an M20B20? The intake manifold doesn't look like it though. So confused.

                That is an ICV, it is an eta. other models have a different icv and in a different location.

                  Well I fail then.

                  What about the go pedal cable seems to be going the long way around the engine bay.

                    the real question is how do you have 4k posts, and not know what an eta valve cover/icv looks like
