Turbo compessor directly to intercooler

    To simplify my turbo piping I'm thinking about connecting my compressor directly to the intercooler.

    Would there be any advantage or disadvantaged to this?

    Any problems or complacations?

    Help or advice would be great
    Thank you

    If your turbo is secured to the engine and the intercooler to the chassis, you'll want to use a hump coupler to handle vibration. Other than that, this should work great. The less pipe, the better.
