I think for a 10+ year old car that has a bad engine noise, it's a bit high...even with the stuff he has added to it. I understand what they cost to put on, but the sad fact is you don't get much if any of a return on power adders and upgrades like that on these and many other cars. You know that going in usually and do it because that's what you want for it at the time. I personally wouldn't pay over $3500. Not because there aren't great upgrades, but because for $4K, you can get a pretty nice T/A or Camaro, probably more stock than that, but nice and with less miles maybe or something. If you look at it and the body is as sweet as he says, there is ZERO rust, and it runs and has all the add-ons and what not he listed installed PROPERLY and not hacked on there, maybe it would be worth the $3750 you have him at. It's up to you, it all depends on what kind of feeling you get when you take a look at it.

I completely understand what your saying creeping death, but I do get a good feeling from the car, Hes got all the paperwork on the Sc and exhaust and headers put on professionaly, body is very clean the paint is not fading at all and I would venture to say the body without motor or trans is worth 1500 to 2000 then you add the SC which i would say is 2k atleast and thats close to 4k.

"No Oil Lines! No Oil Reservoir! With no drive gears to lubricate, SilentDrive™ eliminates the need to route oil from the engine or a separate tank to the supercharger, which vastly simplifies installation. The absence of hot engine oil allows Powerdyne superchargers to run cooler, thus reducing under-hood temperatures while providing a denser air/fuel charge for increased efficiency and maximum horsepower output"
