Turbo Question/Help

with the charge pipe running forward it in a way cools the air, ive been reading more on doing this and an intercooler is not a must, just better performance. anybody else have opinions/help? For a T3/T4 turbo, universal intake piping and couplers, weld-on exhaust flange, oil flanges, and a small front mount intercooler it owuld run me about 600 bucks, which isnt too bad. but id still need a BOV, most likely the MSD Bosst Timing Master, Electric oil pump to return the oil from the turbo to the engine, and other odds and ends. im thinking under a grand, but not sure if its totally worth trying or not
