Ok so i got a ? for all you FI guys...

~I got a 98GSR stock motor~

The local Advanced Auto Parts has a Turbonetics Turbo kit year and make exact to fit my car. The only catch is its missing the T3T4 Turbo and HKS BOV due to a past employee who stole it. They ordered the kit from Keystone and the sale price is $4,340.00! I have a friend who works there and he said its been sitting there for over 15months, as evidence and they couldnt sell it before so its just been sitting there collecting dust. It was supposed to include everything ness. to boost your car.

~this site says its discontinued and no price for 94-01integra but 94 prior the kits listed at 2900. Thinking the kit cant be much different than the new integra price wise.

ebay has it for $3200 looks like the exact same kit to me

I cant figure out the keystone website but i would like to look it up on there.

Now since its been sitting there for so long and its incomplete they cant sell it for full price. I told them i would buy it for the right price. The manager said he will verify he can sell it and call me. I was told I can go home and see what its worth to me and get back to them on an offer. Being me i dont wanna spend over $1200 on it bc i still have to buy a turbo eng mang. fuel pump. not sure about injectors. OBD2 to OBD1. and a tune, and i dont wanna go way over on price bc im in college and money isnt exactly growing out my a$$

Whats it actually worth to u guys?

What do u think i should offer them i think they will sell it for cheap being they wont be able to sell it to anyone else.

OR they wont sell it being they think its worth 4k $$$.

Any opinions on what to do with this?

Keystone stuff is always ridiculously expensive, we ordered stuff through them when I worked at pep boys and it was always way to highly priced!

 

what about for picking it up for cheap is it worth 1000$ its just a turbonetics cast exhaust manifold

 

bump

 

That is too expensive! I finished my homemade turbo kit with great parts for $2,300. That is already with ECU/injectors and street tuning.
Here's my specs:
-T3/T4 Turbonetics
- Revhard manifold
- Revhard 2.5" downpipe
- Drag intercooler piping
- HKS BOV
- Tial Wastegate
- No brand name intercooler (it works fine for me)
- RC 440 cc injectors
- Walboro fuel pump
- Del sol dual core radiator
- Obd1 ecu with crome- street tuned


Give them an offer around $700 to $800. The main part is missing, turbo...And also it's been sitting there for awhile..

 

any other suggestions????? im thinkin about that price, so is that what its worth?

 

you could EASILY spend less and get a better setup

Now im curious as to how much I spent so im using your format for me

Brand New T3/T4 Turbonetics- 400 (through friend)
Manifold- 110
Intercooler plus piping and couplers and tbolts- 290
Greddy RS BOV (genuine) 25$ through frined
DSM 450cc injectors - FREE through friend
Walbro 255 fuel pump - 90
Turbonetics Evolution gate- 100 through friend
Chipped P28 - 30 self tuned (p28 given to me)
Garrett Boost Gauge - 50
Wideband - 230
Oil Lines - 85 (stealthmode)
clutch kit - 300
3" stainless Exhaust -250 (kteller)

think thats it?

1960$ not including downpipe, not bad i guess

i say go this route, HOWEVER i took 9 monthes to piece it togehter

 

offer them a G note and go get a used turb and a DSM bov.. done

 

the one kit is not a turbonetics though, and that makes a difference.

 

Turbonetics are the ****

 

you can get a full-race kit for 4.5g they're definately trying to rip u off esp since the turbo itself is missing. honestly i'd find the price that i could piece the same set up together for then subtract the amount of the missig items and offer them taht.

 

the turbonetics turbo kit i think is easily the WORST turbo kit on the market. it does more harm than good and makes NO power.


i would offer them 200 dollars, and then sell the parts for 300 dollars to somebody that you dont like.
