The purpose is:

  • It helps to muffle the ticking of the valvetrain and fuel injection.

  • It protects the plug wires, harness, connectors, and other electrical components.

In addition, it might help the engine warm up quicker in the winter time. On some cars, I hear it keeps the hood from warping.
