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.
Thanks for this detailed info. Maybe you are showing for e90?
Sorry I should have clarified my post, I looked at my own engine and diagrams to realise the different pipes. I have an n20 on a 2012 e84 X1 28i.
the airduct on mine connects to the "inlet" pipe.
