    Whats this hole for?

    think its for idle control mate. on my k4m the air comes in, up to the trottle body and ICV, through the ICV, then a pipe into the top of the rocker cover, then out of the rocker cover through your hole into the inlet pipes. K4M seems to have the same sort of setup as the F4R, so i should...
