Question Running Without Intake Air Hose?

Besides the obvious reasons like sucking a bird or a small rock into the turbo, what other affects will running without an intake hose for a long period of time do to a turbo..wear out bearings and seals prematurely?Should there be "some" back pressure from an airfilter on that side of the turbo?
