Can the axle in the 1999/2001 cobra handle a supercharger, or would the axle have to be replaced?
I want a cobra, just don't know which year, and new would be nice, cause' you never know how a used car was treated, but it would be a pita to have to replace the axle to handle
450+ horsepower. So, its either a 98' or 01'
for me. Also, does anyone know how ford squeezed a few extra hp out of the 01 as opposed to the 1998 model? Just simple exhaust and intake?
thanks in advance
