ls1 throttle body..what is this and can I delete it?

Thought Id come and ask the gurus what this hose and connector are for and should I get rid of it and plug the throttle body.I dont think I missed any important sensors or connectors when I was wiring everything and routing it all.Im about to give the motor a good bath and found this just sitting there hanging down.

Any ideas?

just seen it asked before is all. I'm guessing you have all the emissions deleted from the pcm ? if not it will set some codes but that's all
