hello fellow dsm addicts,
I have a quick question that hopefully someone can answer. I have a 1997 eclipse gs-t that I am currently building. I am currently running the stock t-25 and side mount intercooler. The hose that connects to the intercooler is a bit mangled, but I plan to get a fmi eventually. but I can not afford it currently. I am wondering if it would damage anything if I started it without having the intercooler hooked up. Basically the turbo would be charging the air, but there would not be a tight seal to have an efficient force induction. Will this damage anything at all or should I wait? Also I will not be driving it this way, just a start up so I know it will run.
Thanks
