I have a 98 civic lx with the "square looking" intake manifold, and I want to put on a short ram air intake on it. Do i have to just remove the black square case with the filter and the lond plastic tubing and just place the other intake? or do i have to change the intake manifold to the "cone shaped" one?

ummm I think you are talking about the stock airbox, the long black tube with the black box on the end?
if so that will need too be removed too place a new intake
hope this helps if not...i dont understand the question

I don't know the answer of your question but I was thinking to replace the hose to a home made CAI.. like this:

for a lx u would need to remove the hole box and tubing in order to put a short ram or a cold air intake.
will u need to cut a whole in the well to get the cai down in behind the bumper?
you dont necdessarlily need to take off your bumper, just raise your car up and take off the right front tire...start taking the screws out that hold the box and the screws that hold your plastic wheel well lineers and u can pull it back and do all your work without taking off your front bumper
Just pull that box straight up as hard as you can it will come off its just held on by like a really strong rubber band lol. If u get a cold air for you car it should just go down to the spot where there is a hole that leads behind the bumper and infront of the wheel well. I would take off the bumper to get the cold air in place it takes like 20 min (2 bolts under the car on the bottem of the bumper, 1 in each wheel well, and a few under the hood that are just plastic. Thats how i did it on mine.
