Nah man, just hook it right up to the exhaust. But make sure you set the emergency brake.

If by intake you mean the filter, then the answer is no.

The intercooler filters everything, just leave that shit open for a nice little extra power bump.











The best thing to do is have a pipe with no filter running straight from the turbo to right under the car so you can suck in lots of cool air
