01 cobra to 03-04 cobra supercharge conversion. Want to buy.
I have an 01 cobra looking to supercharge it. If anyone has ideas for me on the cheapest way to do this or an offer to sell me a kit then let me know. All ideas are appreciated

Hey bud, I have a 2001 Cobra and wondered the same.
I was thinking Squires Turbo Systems. (STS)
They put a turbo in the back of the car, so no underhood heat, mess, and the turbo runs cooler, so it lasts longer. Just a more efficient place to have a turbo.
They don't have a kit for our year Mustangs, but they have a universal kit for like $1700 w/ a Turbonetics turbo.
You still would have to buy more piping I'm sure but it seems like a good bang for the buck.

ive seen a lot of kits on ebay, although not complete would get you in the right direction. usually about a $1000 for the blower, intake, injectors, etc. Still lacking a bunch of stuff. You have to remember the reaosn these parts are available is because someone upgraded their 03-04 cobra to turbo or what ever so your just getting whats left over. I checked into the same deal for my 01 convt, cobra and it was going to be just about as expensive to buy a procharger new as it was rounding up all the parts for the Eaton(some from the Ford dealer). My two cents.

Seems like alot of people swear by them, and they make quite a bit of power.
Don't know if it would be more effective to just get a s/c. Probably would be.
The STS is just unique.

Depending on how complete the kit is you need:
Fuel Injecotors
MAF
Fuel Pump
Alternator
M-112
Lower Intake
Intercooler
Belt
Throttle Body
Plenum
Bolts
Probably a few other things, that's all I can think of right now.
