It is part of the secondary air injection system which is designed to warm the cats up quicker thus helping emissions.

It is not really required and so the recommendation from some people is to unplug the pump for it, which is located under the nearside front wing, and then remove the pipework and block up the rubber fixings that the pipe you tak about goes into. :y
