i have a cold air intake and i always see people at the track that also have a cold air intake take off the passenger side head light and i was wondering if this works. what do you all think?

It depends on the intake and where it draws air from. Some pick up air in the headlight area so it's a benefit to pull the light and allow air to be pushed into that area.

i have ram air that comes from the open area where the fog light is sopposed to be. it diffenently helps out. but i dont pull my head light, i feel it would cause to much turbulance in the air box the way all the air would be coming in.(one 3" hole from the bottom, and two factory holes from the side)
so in my opinion no takeing the head light off after allready having a cold air intake does not help.

my cold air filter is set up right where the factory air filter used to be which is located right behind the passenger head light. the pipe then comes into the throttle body??????? should i remove or not?

i replaced mine with a true flow intake
took the stock one out, if you have the stock one i would diff take it out and replace it. a true flow will run you about 230 dollars

i have a k&n gen 2, and when at the track i remove my passenger headlamp. it has not given me any reduction in my times, but i think it could give me a ram air effect at high speeds. either way i dont think im loseing or gaining anything.

i pull my headlight when i run. i have a upd intake and i drilled holes in the front of the factory bottom of the airbox and cut away a tiny bit of the skirting behind the headlight. i believe it works well since i have run my best times that way.

goshawk23 i guess i'll try it as well

now the question is how do you take off the head light? thanks

It takes about 30 seconds to take it out. There is 2 L shape metal rods. You cust turn them so the point straight back and pull them up. Headlight will fall out. Then unplug bulbs.
