Hard to say really. I have a UPD and just pull the filter out of the box. I have never dynoed w/o the filter. Should have done that today.

Nope, never tried it without the scoop. It is a bear to get it on and off. I had a stock airbox before with a K&N drop-in filter. Major SOTP difference between the two. I like the water resistance of the sealed airbox. Otherwise I have to worry, when it rains or gets washed.

Your headlight ram should work. Seen it before many times.

Good Luck.
