Yeah, there's no problem taking it off. Everyone that has the Short-ram with the CAI extension had to remove them.

If you look at your stock intake box, and look near the fender, you will see it.

There's a black plastic tube that runs from under the stock airbox all the way to about an inch away from the driver-side headlight... so if you look between the headlight and the fender, youll spot sumthin of the sort
