Default TESTING waters: Complete supercharged d15b vtec

Ok I'm just trying to gauge interest and see what if/what I could get for this..

complete JRSC'd jdm d15b vtec swap,
and I mean COMPLETE
as in, it is in my car right now, running flawlessly
and I would sell everything to plunk it into your car and have it run the same.

specs
JDM d15b vtec (30-60k miles) longblock
d16y8 transmission (no grinds)
stock clutch,
lightened flywheel
jackson racing supercharger running 9psi
3" shortram intake
tuning/fuel:
-tunertoyz 450cc injectors
-B&M fpr/gauge
-P08 ECU
-dynotuned by redzone performance

other stuff:
brand new supercharger belt
extra 6psi pulley & fueling setup
new timing belt

This made 177whp when it was tuned,
is now running a bit more timing, i'm guessing it's at more like 180whp.
I just now ran a compression test on the motor, numbers were 208-204-203-204
that is VERY good for a sohc

Now im not even sure if it'll be for sale yet,
but I'm thinking $1900 for everything?

and $1900 sounds like a steal, but I am a turbo guy and wouldn't spend money on a supercharger. But I believe you would have that thing sold in a week at $1900. Have any pics?

got rearended and the ins company is trying to total my car,
I tried argueing the fact that the car is worth more than they say it is
but only got them to add like 300 to the price(they're valueing it at like 2200 now..)
and their claims adjuster quoted the damages at 3300..

I hate salvage titles,
and don't have the energy to swap everything into another hatch
(I already did that for this one, cuz I smashed my last hatch in a hydroplane accident).

so if it comes down to it I will just rip everything off and sell it all.

Honestly unless I want to pursue a career in the automotive field,
I really spend way too much time and thought on my car, i've totally squandered my other interests..

I have one more thing i'm going to try, that might be able to keep my title clean,
if that works out i'll fix the hatch and keep everything..

otherwise its FS

well, to make a long story short I had to have steve fax me a copy of my statement for the engine. and for the price of the engine they added that to the value of my 91 dx and it was not over 60% in order to total it. So, they bought me another d15b vtec and had money in the check for installation. Only thing they didn't pay for was the shipping.

thanks all,
glad to know my motor's got some worth

and I wanted to update,
good news (for me)

I was able to work with the insurance company and got them to declare
my car repairable, thus it retains a CLEAN title!
So i'm keeping and fixing it
