the pipe with the bolt in it is probably a pipe that comes from the resonator box, if it is you dont need to worry as it doesnt do anything without the standard airbox.

depending on what induction kit you have, there should only be 1 pipe coming off the intake pipe that goes to the back of the cam cover. if you have this, and there is still another mount, then theres a chance it could be an intake from a 4th gen prelude.

As mercutio said, if you can get a couple of piccies, we should be able to help more ;)

if its the long thin pipe coming from the resonator box inside the front bumper then it doesnt matter if its blanked off or not, as the resonator box does nothing without the standard air box. alot of people remove the resonator box when changing to an induction kit.

you need to use a image hosting site such as photobucket to upload pics buddy ;)

as long as you have a breather going from the induction pipe to the corner of the rocker cover you can blank that one off
