after living with the Viggen IC for a while

At first when I installed it I thought that it was better, but then I was out hammering it to see what it would do.
The other night, around 90F, my wife was driving and we had a friend on board as well. So I was the unsuspecting passenger and she does a 2nd gear WOT run. Wow, it is different when you are not white knuckling the steering wheel!!!
I also find my self being surprised how effortless and ample the power is this year, even with the hot weather. And I have not yet gotten around to refitting the insulation on the ducts etc since the IC work.
So I am very impressed with the way that the Viggen IV is working for me.
My MBC is fed from the throttle body with a pop-off valve to deal with the pressure overshoots that such a hookup can create. The pop-off valve valve, which was a small blowoff valve orginally, has its hosebarb connected to a pressure regulator fed with boost pressure. This allows for easy pneumo-adjutment of the pop-off pressure. So far so good. Use an custom adapter to allow for a screwdriver install into the IAC lines.
