TT on the boardman, it is a great bike, with a great wheelset. Buy some clip ons and you have something easily good enough. As Rob says get the TT helmet and skinsuit.

What bars are they?
It will likely result in an aero saving but depending on the bars, adjustability might not be as good, which might mean what you save on the bars, you loose because you can't dial the position as much. You could well end up worse off.
It would mostly be the fuss of the swap, the night before the other event that would put me off tbh, I really don't like messing with stuff within about 3 days of a race unless I have to (although I have broken this rule a few times, to varying degrees of disaster and one time, great success), that way I will have trained probably twice, plus a pre-warm up on the morning, before I drive to the race, in order to find if anything is not right.
