Thanks for that, quick search with the part number on your link found this...

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-Ford- ... 1c6fd4bd8b

Looks hollow inside.

That's great as it saves me having to take it off to find out what it is and it doesn't look like it does much either...

Maybe some kind of mixer upper?

Thanks for your time knobby1

The RWD's have a plastic one which goes between the turbo outlet and the intercooler...

Resonator it is. :mrgreen:
