no, you dont, i had some trouble gettin the air passage pieces out but you can do it without pulling the headlight. once you remove the old passage you should be able to see a good hole to run the tubing down to the bumper area.

guess theres nothing wrong with it, but you wont be getting the "cold-air" effect. i dont see how that would be a problem otherwise

in theory, the cooler the air the better it will run, who knows how much of a difference it makes. but for sure, if you have a better passage for air than the stock restrictive piping you'll run better, because air can get in faster
