prolly wont be anything more than a restriction in the intake tract because the compressor wheel is gonna heat up that charge air as it goes thru the compressor housing, wouldnt hurt to try i suppose but i bet it wont benefit much...thats what the intercooler is for. all the truck drivers around here call them aftercoolers, not intercoolers lol

i assumed he had a turbo on there. i couldnt see an intercooler helping at all on a NA car its a bigass restriction in the intake tract that way
