Default cold air intake question

im thinking about adding a C&L intake tube to my intake i already have a WMS intake elbow but i was wanting to replace my stock tube that goes from my throttle body to the MAF.

My questions are will it clear my factory strut tower brace?

And is it really worth the hundred and some dollars for a small gain or is it just a waste?

thanks, Mitch

I don't believe there is any tube that will clear your factory stb. The tube is a waste of money. Its not going to net you much if any hp.
