Anything to increase the hysteria and the visceral feel of driving the car wide open throttle, I feel it's a little bit less fun to rev out than my last baby (2009 Civic Si). I even keep the rear backseat folded down to let in maximum exhaust noise (great idea, if you ever feel like giving yourself a headache, lets in some more noise that doesn't get locals calling in your license plates) If you think it would be a net loss of enjoyment then I suppose I'd be glad it came without one so I didn't have to delete it.
I also have not a clue how the install might work. I believe the LT1 has the firewall hole and also the intake hole. I was unable to find much of anything about it online.

I think this is a matter of taste, I am simply not a big intake noise fan; unlike the raw engine and exhaust sound, the whoosh doesn't excite me, and I very much dislike supercharger whine, to me a Hellcat supercharger sounds like a worn out ball bearing
Folding down the back seat is a great idea indeed if one wants to make the sound more pronounced. The cabin of the coupe is fairly well insulated from the factory.
Not sure how your neighbors would react to something even louder than a Corsa, heh, although it's the long tube headers that made my car much more dramatic, not really the intake or the supercharger.
