Default Would forced induction systems fit LS2 F-body cars fine?

I am planning on getting a forged 402 LS2 engine to put into my 98 Camaro. I was just wondering if there are any fitment issues with turbo or supercharger systems made for LS1 F-body cars? I would assume they manufacture these systems by fitment of the body of the car and less emphasis on the engine if its specifically made for a 8 cylinder car. Like STS told me, that you couldn't use their twin turbo system made for the LS1 vettes on an LS1 f-body because of the difference in body style and it wouldn't fit.

the dimensions are the same. the only difference would probably be whatever the kit uses to connect to the TB, typically, since LS2 TBs are larger

Almost everything swaps over from the LS1 to the LS2, and a turbo or blower designed for the LS1 f body can be used with the LS2. As has been mentioned, possibly the throttle body size could require a different silicone coupler. Bob
