Exclamation Is it safe to drive with charge pipe off at one end?

I had a set of Hahn charge pipes and intercooler installed by a local tuner shop and the passenger side (hot side?) pipe blew off of the intake manifold. Is it safe to drive the car back to the shop? It's about a thirty minute drive mostly freeway. I want to have them fix it tomorrow, but I don't want to damage anything by driving. Anyone know if it would be OK?
