I would have just bought Al's open airbox mod, but I will be using one of Odie's special ops pipe that still utilizes the interactive exhaust.

I noticed after putting the nuts on the top of the airbox, that they interfered with the mounting of the interactive exhaust box, which was remedied by 5/16" spacers (not shown). Also, you have to make sure that the bolts are tight enough to firmly hold the airbox lid without having them extrude past the nuts on top.

I decided to keep the rear portion just to ensure that the wires and cables weren't going all over the place, probably not necessary, but I like to take precautions.

I mocked it up, and the extra height of the exhaust box didn't seem to touch the top airbox, but I wasn't able to simulate the exhaust valve opening and closing. I'll know for sure later.
