discharge silencer is on early 1998 900's....

I know because I just removed mine on my 1998 900SET. I also wrpped the intercooler inlet and outlet tubes with Thermo-Tec Thermo-Shield wrap and smoother/ported the throttle body transition casting.
It may be my imagination, but I feel that the engine response is smoother ( not as notchy at some accelerator positions) now. With the cold weather here now, the insulation wrap doesn't do anything (and may not this summer either) but it looks cool!
