Will GM Strut Tower Brace Fit Over Magnacharger?
Just wondering if the OEM GM strut tower brace will fit over a Magnuson Supercharger?

Since you (OP) have a 2010, you are going to have to drill and need an adapter as our strut towers are different... There is a vendor on this site selling them. the name escapes me....

I don't mind drilling into the strut tower if it will fit over my Supercharger?
Anyone have a part number for the GM OEM strut tower?

You should wait and make sure the adapters actually come out for the 2010's. The price they were talking about before was crazy high too.

Nine Ball has a vert with a maggie. The strut tower brace fits fine.

Edit: that's a pic of his car in post #5 above.
