Default Removing bypass valve in CAI

Here is my problem. I am trying to take my bypass valve off of my GSR. We get almost no rain here. The owner before me put it in. I am not sure if the CAI is the 1 peice or 2 piece design. If it is the 2 piece do you just take the bypass out? Any way to put together a 1 piece again?

The reason why I want to do this is because the bypass valve muffles the sound a TON compared to my friends with CAI on any other car.
