Actually, all you need to make a D24T into a D24TIC is the intake manifold, the intercooler and some piping.
I'm actually not using the Volvo intercoolers, as they don't fit for the LT, but have 2 pottering around. I'd say it's just gonna be too pricy to ship that to the US.
You could just use a generic intercooler with a similar or more airflow rate and generic piping instead.
There's one more difference on the late D24TIC, that instead of running the oil-cooling over the coolant circuit, they've got a seperate oil cooler. That's not always an advantage though.
The D24T and D24TIC that I got today were both coolant oil-cooled. The one out of the 1997 had a seperate oil-cooler mounted together with the radiator and intercooler.
