Have you guys found it better to part out or to sell with mods? I need a 4 door car/truck...

Well at least sell your blower. Doubt you'd get any higher of a price to make it worth selling with it on.

Ugh... I was afraid to hear that... the downside of a modded stang I suppose.

Yeah, generally, it doesn't add for typical bolt ons, however a blower would up the value. Try to get a good price as is, if you can't then you know what to do.

Well I really like to just trade it out right and not bothering selling it... but who knows. In a perfect world I would have a 4 door diesel truck.

Take the blower off and go to a dealership and trade it in. Thats gonna be your best bet id say. My dad works for a dealership and no dealership will give you anything over blue book because you have a s/c. Now if your car is the nicest theyve ever seen, they might be willing to go a little higher but thats about it.

dealers love cars like yours

they will give you less than if it was stock but will sell it for more than if it was stock

if you have all the documentation of everything you have done....then try to sell it private party as is. if that isn't going well then maybe do like said above, take blower off and go to dealer or again try to sell private party.

OR try to take all aftermarket stuff off and put it back to stock as you can, and go to dealer and sell parts separately
