Can you get a picture and circle what you mean on paint? I am finding it hard to picture.

I think you may mean the airflow sensor, in that case you will definetly need it, otherwise the car wont know what ratio of petrol to air to put in. This will cause idle problems, lumpy running, bad drivability etc

Get a breather filter anyway mate. And it should atttach to the throttle body, not the actual filter

The induction kit shouldnt effect it, it should go into the throttle body. If you put a breather filter on the hole can just be blocked up.

Upload a picture please.
