I've got a Viggen/HOT intercooler and related hoses in my garage, ready to install on my Abbottized '97 SETC. I thought I was going to do it today, but my wife had other plans for my time. Oh well. At least I took care of my registration and state inspection today, well before the end of the month!
As long as I'm draining the radiator, I'm going to replace the thermostat while I'm at it. And while I've got the front bumper off, I'm going to swap out the chrome trim strip for the black ones from the '98 900.
From what I've heard from others who have done this, is that the lower restiction of the flow-through HOT IC improves spool up and reduces boost falloff at high RPM. Dean's response fills in the "why".
I'll post my impressions after I install the new IC.
