I have a '99SE w/auto (no HOT available), & I test-drove a '00 base model (LPT) w/MT about a week ago. Man! What a freakin' difference!! That base model was SO much more fun to drive than our '99SE. Not just fast, but quick too! I almost signed the paperwork right there ...
I don't know what differences there are between a HOT & non-HOT '99, but I can tell you that the '00 base model I tested had the straight-thru IC (Viggen style), so there's no silencer to remove. I seem to recall that '00 models also include a new TBTC casting, so no rework is necessary (a search here might reveal this info for you). I think the airbox still needs the rework, but considering you get the upgraded IC, it's a small price to pay.
It was a blast, that's fer shur! :-D
