2 things:
1) as Jay almost said, the Intercooler is fitted between the turbo and the engine.
2) I wouldn't use tubing it you need to bend the airways, I'd use an alluminium/brass rod of the same diameter. Much easier to bend and won't break (tubes/pipes offer MUCH more resistance to bending. It will break before bending sufficiently for you application)
Good luck
Alex
