How would intercooling help a N/A engine? A turbo forces hot compressed air through the intercooler, cools it through the fins, and it goes into your TB in the form of boosted air. How would a N/A engine be able to force air through an intercooler? if you where thinking of just leaving one end open, then the restriction of making your engine pull air through an intercooler would drop HP quickly.
They do have "intercooler" ram air kits, which is a intercooler looking cotton gauze filter that fits in your bumper. But that works bad too, and wouldn't fit your Lanos without some custom bent pipes. For best sound and performance just go with a full Ram Air Intake running to your front foglight.
