How long have you been driving it around untuned for ?

 

tune it then sell it. i would think it would be difficult to sell the car untuned, first because the buyer will think you've been driving it around untuned even if you didnt and secondly the buyer won't be able to take a ride in it before he buys it.

 

since january but i also have a blazer, a camaro, and a motorcycle i drive. its 7psi FMU. i just stay out of it. the money for tuning went to paying for the bottom end to be done. the LS bottom end spun two bearings and went two years on the same fuel setup.

So long as a compression test yeilds consistent good numbers across all cylinders you shouldn't have to worry.

 

My brother bought a 'untuned' 96 GSR that had a bunch of small things, it had a DRAG kit IIRC. It had mechanical gremlins, easy to fix if you knew turbo'd cars well. He got it cheap for 5k, sold it for 6k IIRC. It needed a lot of TLC...

I'd expect you'd get at least $6k, but this would assume it was sold in WI, not TX. $7k would not be unreasonable IMO. A few bills for tuning and a flashy dyno slip, and you should get $7-8k no problem.

thanks man. well mine has NO GREMLINS it truly is a perfect used car. although using perfect and used in the same sentance has to be taken in the proper way. but i am a fully certified mechanic and a perfectionist when it comes to the way i repair/replace things. so everything is good just needs a good new home.
