The intake should probably have a hose clamp type connection at the throttle body, and the air box is probably bolted down with about four long screws. Thats how mine was, but mine is a 94...

Sorry honda_dude, can't help u with that. Maybe call a dealership and ask them if it is necessary to remove the entire bumper to get to that box. They usually will give helpful info on that sort of thing.
i just finished putting my short ram intake in. wen i turn off my engine, the intake makes a SWOOSH sound. Is that normal?? and wen my engine is running, i can hear the intake sucking air in. Is that normal??

I've not removed all the baffle/crap in the fender. Why worry about a few pounds? It's not like it will cut a 1/2 second off of your 0-60 time. I chose to leave it alone, it's not worth all the trouble to me.

Mine is still intact. I see NO reason to go to all the trouble to remove it when it offers ZERO advantages.

With all of the minor modifications I enjoy mid to upper 20's in town and mide to upper 30's on the road.

man! after a day of driving with my AEM SRI, its awesome! i can hear it ROAR!! at 3000 rpm. but i didn't take the bottom part out of the stock intake (baffle box./ res..something) Will taking the bottom part out change my performance and will keeping it in decrease it? (as in HP, gas mileage, airflow) THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP!
Leave it.... re-read these posts for explination why, or remove it if you feel the need...

When I put my SRI in, I took the resonator box out. I dont think it probably helped much, but I wanted to get rid of it. It serves no use for me. It might get a little more airflow without it there, but I doubt if its much. Mine was a huge pain in the rear to remove, so I would say its probably not worth it.
