It was probably destined for one of the smaller countries w/ even stricter mandates of the German models don't have it.

I don't have PET loaded on the computer so I can't look, but is there an M *** # next to the part number?

That may tell which country it was made for...
Correct. Europe has very tight noise restrictions and most new cars nowadays come with the most ingenious weird shaped resonator boxes hookerd up to the intake.

So this is resonator box is hooked up indeed solely to reduce intake noise.
