Take cat-back off. I did that and it seemed to gain noticeable power. Much less weight too. It's not even as loud as you think.

Driver side headlight removal is good for about .1-.2. It allows cooler outside air to flow to the intake instead of drawing air from the engine bay. Works really well.

Behind the D/S headlight is the airbox. There is a hole in the rad support that direct air to the airbox. By removing the headlight, you have ram air without having to buy a hood! I can remove the headlight in about 5 min.

Not sure on the 04's, but I believe to take the headlights out on 05-06 models, the bumper cover has to come off.

04 is the same but after doing it a few times, it becomes easy. 3 bolts/ 2screws on the bumper cover and 3 bolts/2 plugs to remove the headlight.
