Many engines are run without intercoolers, but they were designed for it with lower compression and less aggressive timing maps. Instead of running no intercooler I'd just find a very small one to route basically on the piping.

I was going to do this for under 500 including every thing (cheep)
stock 7mgte's can destory a rear ring and pion rather quickly if lead footed
the frist plan was to keep it na and see how it went any way
I still am on the hunt for ka24de that is the motor I really wana put in then mate it up with the w56

I have a stock NA 7mge and I love it's tractor like low-end instant torque. I would think it should be more than sufficient for an off-roader/crawler and be much more controllable power as well.
Just don't see the point, especially considering the application, imo.
