I think it's worthwhile, just my two cents. Then again, I was recovering from knee surgery at the time, and couldn't drive my car for six weeks, so I had to find something to do. :)
After I upgraded mine, it seemed like the spool up seemed more progressive. With the old intercooler, it seemed like boost would lag for a while, then hit. With the Viggen style, it seemed to ramp up to the peak in a much more linear fashion.
Since the intercooler plumbing is more direct and there's less of it with the Viggen style, I'd say you're less impacted by heat soak, which is something that I've seen evidence of.
