Support it as in hold it open? It should. Not sure if it's windy how well it will hold it open. I've yet to stick the pistons on the force gauge and see what they're putting out as the part number on them doesn't jive with the online catalog (might be custom).

At full open the weight of the hood itself is helping to keep it open, the strut just provides a little additional resistance. It also provides a closing force as the mounting point rotates past the pivot to provide the toggle.
