3. Turbo "boost" from passenger side of engine below inlet to cooler
In this picture from realoem, here are the commonly referred to parts:
1. Air duct
14. Turbo inlet
16. Turbo-to-intercooler (TIC) pipe (or boost pipe)
23. Charge pipe

The charge pipe connects to the throttle body (this connection commonly fails on the oem unit). The other end of the chargepipe doesn't connect directly to the outlet of the intercooler; there is a separate pipe betwern the outlet of the intercooler and the inlet of the charge pipe. I don't know if there is a common name for this additional pipe, I'd probably just call it the intercooler outlet pipe.
