Not one of the auto manufacturer's brighter ideas IMHO.
Technically they are called "sound symposers" and have been fitted to everything from Porsches to Ford Focus cars.
I removed the one on my car very shortly after purchasing it and have never even for one second regretted doing it.

If you may be interested, here is a short article on them-

Thank you for the link. I'll check it out.

I actually haven't driven my Camaro since deleting this item, but even if I don't perceive a difference in cabin noise, the more clean underhood appearance justifies its deletion.
