Default newb ? about intakes

Ok i got my flame suit on and ready for this. I was searching around the web and i came across a Integra that had a AEM cold air intake. But did not have a Air filter on it. he had it hooked up to a 300ZX Innercooler. and just blocked off the inlet piping. Would this really work? would u expect more gains from this?

i would think it would just be a wannabe turbo. kinda like the neuspeed intake that looks like a intercooler.

Are you saying he put the intercooler in-line, or he allowed the charge to run through the bars and plates of the intercooler and then capped the ends? I don't get it.

He put the intake pipe on the outlet of the innercooler and plugged the Inlet of the Innercooler

haha, no... where's the air going to come from? I guess it would work to cool the air, but there isn't enough air pressure to have an advantage to running a small intercooler on an N/A car.
