You'd be upsetting the fuel-air balance, as without the aftercooler, the intake air will be warmer, and thus less dense and therefore less oxygen to burn the fuel. The engine was designed for those exact parameters of cooled intake air, so you would probably have an overfueled condition. An engine that is overfueled wastes fuel and carbons up the injectors faster and won't last as long as the excess fuel washes off the cylinder walls. You might be able to correct it by adjusting the fuel rate, but if it were me, I'd use the aftercooler. This is my take anyway, perhaps an IH specialist can come up with a better one.
