You can remove it all to give you more space. I have a 3" intake and no problems with anything touching or rubbing. It just sits as its supposed to

You think you have trouble, try fitting the SFS one in there!

That black solid piping is a vacuum line, you can remove it and the n112, SAI etc. I got the sfs intake with no rubbing at all. Fit very well
