highway trips where the turbo is working a lot but normal driving will show little affect BUT what will happen without the intercooler the engine induction temp will run some what higher at high output. the boost controller will reduce the turbo output to prevebnt detonation also the fuel mixture will run much richer in an attempt to cool the inlet temp to the engine. if your friend takes it easy he may see little affect on performance as long as he doesn't punch it too hard. Turbo Saabs ran for years before an intercooledr was added for increased performance and fuel efficiency
