Default Cold Air

2000 a/4 added twin cone air filters, if holes are cut in shroud the size of a half dollar will it hurt or help. two holes under the filter for some air any help accepted

It'll definitely help. More cold air = more power. I'm not saying it's gonna be a huge amount, but every little bit helps. I'd also say to make the holes bigger than a half dollar. Get as much cold air in a you can.

I have this setup(twin cones).I got good results by cutting holes in the fog light area.This lets cold air into the air filter area.At highway speeds my inlet air temp. is within 2* of ambient.
