Default intercooler on a non turbo?

ok i was wondering .. i have a turbo kit for my crx .. but im still waiting on a few parts . so it wont be awhile untill i put it on ... & was wondering if it would be good or bad
2 put the intercooler on . without the turbo ?? it would be like a big cold air intake right ? .. or would it be too much air ? & kill my low end ? .. i gotta do some cuting & what not 2 the piping & car .. so i gotta put it on anyway . 2 make sure it all fits .

You could go ahead and mount the intercooler, but I wouldn't actually hook it up until you have a turbo.

It will probably create a restriction and kill your top end power, not your low end. So, it's not going to hurt anything, but it definitely won't help anything.

NO!!!!!!
It won't do ****.
Matter of fact, it will be stolen. Seriously.

It won't do anything at all. If you have a CAI - it'll be the same thing, but worse - because of more friction and probably less velocity.
