I have that hood and it does bring air to the intercooler, but far less efficiently than the stock hood... I would recommend going with a front mount, although it's not absolutely necessary unless you live in a hot climate...

i've actually heard that the stock hood's scoop is placed in a pretty inefficient spot, a low pressure zone or something. but that's just what i've heard.

I dont think its the hood that makes the tmic ineffective. I think its more the fact that heat rises.....

Just get a front mount with whatever hood you have : )
