That is your choice. I suggest leaving it there as it will support the intake and give as much air as possible to it as well. BTW, you did get the adapter plate, right?

you can remove the pipe, but you will lose your low end power

Yep, got the adapter for 10 bucks
the intake makes a low growl sound now
I'll keep the pipeing on, thanks for the tip!

Yeah I love that sound. Intimidates Civics but embarrases me in front of V8 Muscle.

Please explain to me how removing the front intake scoop will make you lose low end power?
