I don't think there is any such thing as a dumb question. The only thing dumb is not asking.
For me the sound tube is just engine bay clutter. It not only blocked the view of my new Ford blue coil cover on the driver side, it just took away from the symetrical view of the power plant sitting in there.
It doesn't increase performance in anyway, so the removal of it won't cause any reduction in performance.
It was designed by Ford Engineers to, as they say increase the drivers driving experiance. It does work in that sense. It transfers sound from the engine compartment into the drivers compartment.
It's basiclly the old two cans and a string when we were kids. Or a talk tube at a play ground. except much more advanced. Ford diffenently spent time and money on the design and engineering.
You don't have to remove it, you can just leave it as is. Or you could take it off, remove the foam plug at the fire wall end, heck you could go one step further and take it apart and remove even more of the baffling inside the two other acoustical compartments and really enhance your driving experiance.
For me...it's just not needed and I like the way it looks removed.
