03 Cobra supercharger on an 04 GT?

My cousin has a 03 cobra factory supercharger, he wants to put it on his 04 GT, is this possible and if so what other parts would he need to make it work and would it be worth his while to do so...never messed with superchargers so dont know a whole lot

It can be done and has been done. Try a google on that, off the top of my head, he will need the blower, crank pulley, front end kit, fuel pump, injectors, and an intercooler. I know there is more stuff needed, but I am drained from work and too tired to look it all up.

It's not a cost effective swap. He's going to spend a fortune trying to do it.

Compression being one small problem (you can't run enough boost to benefit)...

Your cousin would be better off selling it and buying another FI setup made for his car. IMO

How is it a mediocre blower? The Magnuson (Eaton's North American Distributor) M112 is the same Supercharger found on the Cobra and Lightning.

You are crossing into the Roots versus Centrifugal argument.
