No that won't work.

You should read up on how intercoolers work - you'll understand a lot more about how to plumb one up. Think of it like a radiator for the air coming from the turbo. Instead of coolant pipes going to the cylinder head and water pump you have one end going to the turbo and one end going to the intake. All engine air passes through the intercooler.
