sensor identification...

i dont have a pic of it yet, still at work. but its above the the a/c dryer and heater core lines. it has a vacuum line as well. ill try to take a pic of it when i get home, but does anyone know what it is by chance. it looks like it might be connected with the vent system

Sounds like your a/c pressure sensor.

since im talking about this area, the red vacuum line that plugs into the elbow of the stock intake, what is it, the other line that would be next to it connects to the egr. im thinking about taking that line off as well to get rid of vacuum that im not using. it ties into the vacuum cluster that goes inside the passenger fender well.

The CANP (Canister Purge Solenoid) is used to help vent evaporated fuel from the gas tank into the intake. Gas fumes collect in the charcoal canister in the passenger fender, and at part throttle (I think) the CANP opens and lets intake vacuum suck the gas fumes into the intake to be burned. It doesn't affect power at all.

The red vacuum line is part of the emissions system. It provides vacuum to the solenoids in the passenger fender, and routes it to the EGR and the AIR valves . The AIR valves are on the hose coming from the smog pump and route air either to the catalytic converters or push air into the back of the cylinder heads.

Basically, it's all emissions equipment.
