I still have to remove my resonator and front bumper to put something in that only stays in the engine bay?

you dont need to remove the resonator for a short ram, it will sit perfectly up there...

but if you're modding means you wanna go fast, means you also want some weight reduction...you gonna do it, do it right!

After I installed my Icebox, I weighed the stock air intake system, including the resonator behind the bumper, and it was about 15 pounds total. Roughly 10 pounds for the intake system in the engine compartment (on my '99 this includes the mini-radiator) and 5 pounds for the lower resonator.

I was wondering what the little mini radiator was.. it confused me but install took about an hour.. redirecting the hoses on the mini-radiator and another hose.. I didnt have any instuctions at all but I got it done.. phewww.. Anyone know where I can get a 02-03 engie cover cheap? Do they make Carbon Fiber ones for our car? Thanks!

its safe to completely remove that "mini-radiator" is just for the water lines and makes absolutely no apparent difference. your intake kit should've come with a little device to bypass it.

if not auto discount, autozone, advance auto parts...etc... have this little thing that looks like hose===> ---||||--- <===hose costs $3...unless you found a way to mount the lil' radiator...in which case POST PICS!!

According to the Service manual;

Below 27F, all incoming air is routed through the mini-radiator and therefore warmed.
Above 50F, all incoming air bypasses the mini-radiator.

This is done with a trap door that's controlled by a spring and wax element in the stock air filter housing.
