    nearside headlight air feed??

    ok so now the clio is never to be back on the road in my own im gonna take out the nearside headlight to get some more air into the engine bay!!

    is it still worth having a standard air box with replacment filter or would it be worth havin an open induction kit to get to the air straight away???

    ur thoughts please

    well if your removing the headlight you want as direct feed as possible. something like a viper will have a larger more direct feed into the throttle body with clean cold air.

    removing the headlight. not that much really just cool clean air an not low enough to suck in much water. about the same as a scuttle air feed i would think.
