Realistically, whatever you can get for it.
However:
I'm in the process of acquiring a 2nd hand kit right now. Normal price new here in Australia is $12-13k, grabbed it at $7500. Honestly, I wouldn't have paid any more for it. Call it 60-65% of new cost.
From a buyers persepective -
A) it's second hand
B) there's an element of risk involved
C) there WILL be parts missing (extra cost/mucking around).
D) no warranty
E) no tune

At 75% I wouldn't have even looked at it. :cheers:

When you total up that kit exactly as you have it, what is the complete cost if new?

50% to 60 % of new cost .. And if you can offer free shipping , it really helps to sell fast ..

I usually go 50-60% of new for used stuff

You also need to take into account what people are getting them for new not list price. Most vendors will sell the stage 2 with tune and fans for 7300-7500 new. You have a few extras but you might be better off selling them separate because not everyone will want them. There is a stage 2 whipple on Facebook now for 5000.

I'd say 60-75%. I'm not selling a $7000 kit for 3500 lol no way

Can anybody actually reference one thats been sold for what they are suggesting?. I bought my used top for 2k, and with the discount offered the stage 2 parts kit puts cost at 5800ish. Id say 5kish is about right for a nice clean kit.

Well I got a third gen 2.9 for sale if anyone is interested Dm me with a number Not putting a set price I just want whats fair looking to get a a turbo kit for me new 18 Lmk thanks for the input guy's

I'd throw it out there just like you did. Take some offers in the classifieds. You will without a doubt lose some on it. I'd pay 4.5k for it if it came complete and everything is organized and with the install manual, no damaged parts and you're up front and straight forward on the details. 10 rib is a huge plus. I have a ten rib on my '05 stroker motor.

4500.00 is way to low I know I'm gonna lose money but not trying to give the thing away lol if some ones gonna sale a third gen 2.9 for 4500.00 with 10 rib setup ill buy them all

What you’re gonna hafta do is take your total, realize people just got it for 15% off and may again for xmas and tax time, then save the next buyer enough to take the dive...if there’s not at least 2k off the price of new, they may just take the warranty of new.

I’ve rarely seen anyone list blower setups at 50-60% of new, and i’ve seen many listed above what most pay for one...i’m really amazed at what people try to sell used stuff for now.

well figure 3-$400 for good injectors and a good tune plus a tuner. So 6-850 for a tune plue 2-300 for a tuner and that does not include that if it were me I would buy a new belt that would have come with a new kit.

Stage 2 Kit I got with the upgraded heat exchanger for $7475 now take off $1550 for missing things you are at $5925 then its used so even at 75% your at about $4443.75 worth of stuff. The buyer does not get the new warranty, potential for issues with used things, everything is not perfectly neat and organised making the install a bit harder. I would not personally go higher than 4K myself honestly.

Agreed, I see a lot of overpriced used blower set ups. They tend to sit for sale for months, just not enough $ off new cost to make it worth the gamble.

Message vendors privately for their best prices, what you see online is often protected by MAP so you need to contact directly to get the best pricing.

With the new Whipple updates gen 2 price fell drastically. :(
