looks like some sort of ignition coil setup. definately is used to supply spark.

Makes sense. Do you think its related to the other two components or maybe just a convenient place for all 3? Theyre not connected to eachother...i dont think and the other two parts have hoses connected to them so im thinking maybe theyre emissions related?

Re: What is this?

The part in the center that has the post sticking up is the ignition coil. The part on the right is a vacuum solenoid for something. The part on the left looks like a module that controls the vacuum solenoid.

Egr solenoid would be my guess. The other is definitely an ign. coil.
