How much do I ask for my Ep3?
I have a 2002 Civic Si
36,000 Miles
Excelent Shape
No Dents!
Tinted Windows
Newly Installed Greddy Turbo Kit with BOV and Intercooler
Hondata K-pro
and Brand New Greddy close to 3" Exhaust.
I also have a sweet set of black with polished lips Ikon GT5's w/tires
Those are brand new but they are not on the car because I think of them for more of a show rim. They are heavy.
How much could I expect to sell this for?

How much you can get for an '02 EP3 depends to a significant degree on where you live. In Michigan, a car with modifications may be worth a lot less than an unmodified one in, say, Virginia or Florida (no snow).
For example, six months ago in the Washington DC area, used EP3s often sat on dealers lots for several weeks. Now, owing to the perception that they -- i.e., Honda Civics -- get "good" mileage, you can't find one for sale. When they do appear, the initial asking price is approximately $12k for an '02, $13k for an '03; $14k for an '04, etc.
If you are a member of a credit union or bank in person, ask your loan officer to look up the loan value on your car. Typically the loan value is approximately 20-25% less than the area retail price.
Whether your particular car is worth more because of the modifications is anyone's guess. You may find someone who considers your additions a real plus. Others may look at what you've done and conclude you're the sort of person who drives his car hard. In either case, if you get back a third of what you spent, you'll be ahead of the game. In which case, you probably be better off selling the trick stuff separately.

Go to http://www.edmunds.com put in your year and miles and click on personal sale and averge condition. As mentioned above the mods will not return to you what you have paid for them.
My advice is to put it back to as much stock as possible and try to sell it. Things like wheels won't really hurt price, but a turbo kit certainly will. You seriously limit your audience when you have 'extreme' mods on it, such as that.

I agree... You will make a lot more if you sell it stock.. Sell the turbo kit by itself.
