Default Intercooler shot and no coolant inside

My inter cooler took a rock or something sharp on the highway. the system holds no coolant now. i ordered the part.

can i still drive 30 miles to work if i go slow? even if there is nothing cooling the supercharger?

need to get to work.......you know what i mean!

I wouldnt do it. These motors already run butt a** hot with the stock cooling system. Did you buy a stock heat exchanger or a after market one?
