you probably can't feel 1 or 2hp, but will probably make a differance =

It does work great under certain circumstances. As I mention in the =

cold/dense outside. Hey its like 4 bucks, what have you got to loose. =
When I switched to the pipercross airbox I took the ram air out since it =

The ram air effect is fairly insignificant. What is critically =
important is that you pull cold air into the motor. That's really where =
you get your gains. The set up that you just posted the link for would =
work great in this respect.

What about a ram-air ductwork setup?

anything until I get the 2.0 in...

Yes, letting hot nasty engine bay air into your motor will help =
reduce harmful horsepower. In fact, you lose about one hp for ever 10deg =
increase in air temperature. Go for it!
