That is inded what it looks like. Whether you need it or not is another question.
My friend does not have it on his and everything is just fine.

You could see it in this picture, but obviously it's with an AEM intake. I would imagine the intake you have has some kind of mount on the shell where you're supposed to connect the bracket to? If not, I wouldn't worry about it unless your intake moves around a lot or you just want it to be more secure.

i got one in a 95 hatch. you dont really need the bracket, but if you want to install it it goes on the side of the shock tower.
