    Cold air gone wrong

    I just recently bought a cold air filter, while i was removing the stock air filter i came across a silver electronic box. What did you guys do with the box? Then i decided to drive it for awhile, but then the second day of driving it, the "service engine soon" came on. Any ideas?
