Default older blower conversion?

i can get a stock blower from an '04 cobra for $800, in like new condition. it was removed immediately and replaced from the car when the car was brand new. i reeeeeeeeally think i should get this, and i heard there is an adapter i can use to mate it up with my car. is this true? how much do those things go for? and last, what should a blower like this cost??

Sorry I have never heard of this. It would all depend if you could get a 3 valve intake that would mate to the S/C.

Good luck

I wouldn't do it. It seems to have the potential for a huge headache.

you would need a custom intake manifold, pully equipment, etc. not worth it.

if it seems to good to be true, it is.

Yeah man, that would be a lot of modding to get it to work right....

Has potential for serious problems. I would save your money and make sure you get one for a 2005+. What seems like it will save a little can end up costing a bunch of money if it screws something up.

agreed, major potential for serious

but hey, if you do it, you'll set the trend
