I have a hatch and mine doesn't have that hole. It's all good, I run a stock b16 airbox.

I'm not sure but I believe you can buy a CAI from a LS, but you HAVE to relocate your radiator overflow reservoir.

That's if you don't want to cut.

go get a hole saw and cut out the pre-stamped circles where the air box sits. clean up the edges with sand paper or a deburring tool and then get some kind of paint or primer on there so it won't rust. then install your intake.
