The Box will fit on.
If you find a box with a higher final drive in it, then you will rev more for the eqn speed, so will be quicker accelerating.

First thing you need to find out what finla you have in your GSi box. on the side of the gearbox, on the bottom edge, just above where the driveshaft is you clean it off anf it tells you what final you have in the box.
3.74, 3.94.
The higher the better, but it means you will be revving loads on the motorway
