value of turbo ls1's?
 
I may be selling my car sometime soon but I wanted to go turbo first, I was just wondering what the value of turbo ls1's are and if they are harder to sell, I know there are not too many of them out there so I would think they'd be worth more but what have your experiences been?, thanks... :chug:

LOL. worth.... Any modified car you are going to take a bath. I would say 1$ for every $20 you put in your car you might get back.

your talking $10,000 to get a running Turbo LS1, once your done. (or more)

and you may be lucky to get $5000 more for the car... most likely about $1000

for example, a incon TT, 12 bolt, tubular suspension, 60K 1998 Z28 sold for 10K a few months back, blown tranny. That car alone, locally, would have fetched close to $8000 stock at the time after a tranny rebuild.

aside from the price of a kit(5-9psi) what kind of hidden extra parts are required to get the kit running properly not including guages, bov, boost controller, computer tune($900).. ?? gimme a list of extra's and the power output required, thanks :chug:

sorry, if i would have seen it earlier, it would be mine... and the parts put on my 1998 WS6 :D

for the requirements for a turbo ls1.

Fuel system, Turbo kit, Clutch, (converter A4) 12 bolt if your doing any serious racing, computer tuning just to name a few of the major parts
