not sure, but i dont believe the SI kit would have fit "as peachy" as the GSR...

Forgive me if i'm wrong, but doesn't the vortec have a tub that goes from the charger to the tb? Why not get some custom tubing made and run a standard intercooler off of something like a volvo or dsm or anyother turbo cars you can find in a junk yard with a stock ic?
