It is an intake muffler (of sorts). You should just replace the tubing from the intake manifold to the air box. Better yet, take a 96 Civic short ram intake kit, cut off about half of the straight section and clamp on a cone type filter.

It is a resonator. Yes you can remove it. as for power you will get no extra you will get increased sound though
