The only real benefit is it looks cool, especially if you can get a factory Mach 1 hood to go with it instead of using the black plastic overlay thing. The scoop itself is ducted down to the factory airbox, thereby making it technically functional; though the air it draws in isn't any cooler than the air the factory airbox draws in through the fenderwell.

looks better than th stock fake scoop dances around when you tap on the gas and somewhat sucks in cooler air from outside when you get on it. if ya dont beleive that put a pewice of paper in front of the opening of th scoop then turn the throttle at th throttle body and you will see the paper get suck towards the opening
