Let me help you out here.. i have a 2" IC and my TB hit my stock hood.. i created a small dent in the cross member of the hood for it to clear.. now i ran this way for a long while with no problems... buuut now i have an Inferno hood and im not about to go putting a dent in my new freshly painted hood... so i bought a turndown used and have no problems.... now you are 1/4" taller then mine so you could have issues if you dont run one... but that is for you to decide if you want to cut or dent your new hood in order for it to fit
