Intake headlight for relocated mafs??

Just a thought i have the full stage 3 zzp s256et already installed in my hhr which includes the relocted maf to the lower charge tube and the forward facing intake not far from where the breather hole on the stock box was i was thinking of making my own intake headlight (track use only) and running a tube to that location of the breather hole or cutting in a little more and running a tube from the opening straight beside the air cone to get cooler air straight into that beast of a turbo any thoughts anyone??

If you remove the headlight, it should work beautifully.

Some body has done that to the fog light, if I remember He liked it fine. Still had headlights to drive, a plus....

Lots of modification needed to make fog light induction practical. Not much room going from engine bay down to that area through fender. This what I mean...

Keep in mind, I have already removed some metal from this area. If you were to figure out a different way to brace the headlight area, then the existing brace you see could be removed to duct air from fog light area. The light in the pic is where the existing fender hole for intake is. Pictures are taken from this hole
