It would have a slight ram air effect.

Technically I dont know, but i see civics on the strip missing their right headlight with an intake there, so Id figure its got some function to it.

It would act as a cold air intake and that is all. "Ram Air" for automobiles is a marketing ploy. Even at 100MPH, there will be no appreciable pressure gain. Think about 2% pressure gain at that point.

It would be negligible, and then you would have borked up your headlight.
