It won't have nearly the effect on a 180 as the one for it doesn't collapse. The design of the TIP for the 225 is flawed so it is sometimes required if you're pulling in more air than stock.

ORIGINAL cincyTT:

The 180's have a cast aluminum peice that makes it stronger, but still very restrictive.

I went ahead and ordered it. APR is running a deal with Car Care One where any purchase between now and June 4th gets a $50.00 rebate so my cost for this hose is going to be $139.00
