Short answer... no, it will not work. Also the functionality of the kit is different. Don't know how much that plays into it not working, but we had a good priced used local kit, I looked it over, too much different to mess with for the price. Ended up going with an ECS kit.

I think the head unit bracket is the same, the intercooler and piping is different-if you have some time and patience i'm sure it could made to fit just fine-I know I would.

The bracket must be different somehow.
The older stage I ATI kits will not clear an LS2 intake with 90mm TB on it... the new C6 kits do.
From that I assumed the brackets were different.
My thinking is that if you can get a used older kit for say... $2000.. might be worth it, but if you are going to spend $3500, then spend another $2000 to upgrade it... not worth it.
Hope that helps.

I sold a customer in the Middle East a ProCharger eight rib C5 kit for a C6 Z06. We used the C5 eight rib bracket assembly with the C6 intercooler and inlet assembly. He reported back that it went together without any problems. Bob
