Anyone familiar with having a Vortech V-2 supercharger on either the 99 or 01 Cobras? One for sale locally, with all the necessary components (less fuel injectors and fuel pump) for $1,300. I am dead set thinking this is a good idea for me.

The kit is/was originally for an '01. I have a '99. That is my predicament. I can't see where there would be a difference. I know the '01 had a 2nd idler pulley - so if need be, sounds like I would just need to find a slightly longer belt to drive the V-2.

Thought I'd ask around. Thanks!

Thank you - that was my initial guess.

Have another ?

The kit I am buying Saturday comes complete less the MAF, Injectors, and Pump. I am thinking a 255lph pump, 42lb injectors, and a MAF off a '04 Cobra ought to do the trick.

Anyone see any problems there? My aspirations are mild, as I figure I'll run in the 8-10psi range to prolong the life of my stock rods, etc. Thanks.

no it sounds all good. just make sure you get a good dyno tune.

That my friend is the single best part isn't it?! My friend John at HP-ranch will do just that locally.... I look forward to that day! Probably will be sometime in January/February however.

Thanks again.

Supposedly the shop I'm buying this from received it in on one of their project cars (an '01 Cobra) decided to do the T-trim upgrade, and sent the E head unit to Vortech for a rebuild. According to them, Vortech said it did not need servicing; but thanks for the pointer - I'll be sure to double check for myself.

I looked into purchasing the newer T trim but honestly 450 horsepower is more than what I'd be happy with at this point - considering my stock engine's internals nearing 100,000 miles.
