yeah those hoses use vacuum pressure to open up a valve there in one of those pipes, basically it opened up after 4k rpm to let more air into the intake and in theory keep noise down below 4k. You can just take them out but make sure you plug up the hose otherwise there will be no vacuum. and theres another thing there that has a wire attachment im pretty sure you can remove that as well without throwing a cel.

My 92 Has them i just never took it out cuz I havent drilled a hole for my Intake Extension. Its still sitting there and yes you have to plug up that line. I thought it was suppose to do something like that I read about it but forgot.
