I think it's called the air assist valve. No idea what it does but it's hooked up to the fuel system in some way. Could be wrong though.

Its a purge control valve for the fuel tank vapours, it releases the vapours from the carbon canistor in to the manifold, basically just stops you car smelling of fuel. Its not a necesity but will probly show a fault code if you remove it.
