Boom! done, done and done with owning and modding cars, giant money pits. I'm ready to take a break, square off with uncle sam and pay off the house.

Well, the time has come and I must move on to bigger and better things, I've put my blood, sweat and tears into this car.

Car put down 640hp/707tq at 10.5 psi of boost

Currently it runs on 12psi (Low boost) and 16psi (high boost)

Still on the stock LS2 bottom end with the necessary parts to keep it together. This car is built for everything, whether you want to auto-x or drag race, or be the next street king(as long as you're not in TX, lol)!

Some basic info and history on the car

Purchased February 2008 as second owner, car was 100% stock and only had one owner at 21k miles.

This vette is Victory Red with the 3LT package. It has every option, including Nav and dual roofs.

I started off modding with a Kooks full exhaust, Vararam Intake and Fast 92 manifold, it made 406/406 tuned.

That gave me the itch, purchased a used A&A Si kit and ECS Blower cam. Car made 580whp/540tq

I then installed House of Boost Eliminator Fuel system, Arp Head studs and LS9 Head gaskets, then switched pulleys to a 3.25 to 14psi and started to run E85. Car was never put on a dyno, I put many hours into street tuning it!!

Then I took it to the next level, Purchased and installed an UPP twin turbo kit took it to the track, ran a 10.66 @ 136, then blew the trans and diff on the next pass, after a new built trans a diff, im done dumping money into this car and that's how the car sits now with 47k miles

Here is a list of the Aftermarket Parts installed and cost:


UPP twin turbo kit = 5500$
Pat G Spec Turbo cam ÔÇô 226/226 117lsa = 450$
Pac 1518 Springs = 180$
Katech C5R timing chain = 150$
Comp Hi-Tech Pushrods 120$
ARP Head studs = 250$
LS9 Head Gaskets = 100$
RKT Performance TR6060 Trans = 4000$
RKT Z06 Diff with DSS hardened axles = 3000$
New Shifter Box = 150$
DSS Carbon Fiber Shaft = 1300$
RPS Street Twin Carbon clutch = 1800$
New Slave Cylinder = 200$
Tick Master Cylinder w/full line and remote bleed= 400$
House of Boost fuel system Eliminator Kit = 2300$
ID1000 injectors = 960$
PFadt Engine mounts = 250$
PFadt Trans mount = 290$
PFadt featherlite coilovers = 2190$
PFadt F/R Sway bars = 1250$
PFadt Spherical Bearings = 1890$
RSD 6pt rollbar = 1550$
RSD Line loc = 250$
18x11 widened wheels = 800$
Rear Nitto 555r Tires, (New) = 650$
Z06 Modded Mufflers = 600$
AEM UEGO Wideband gauge = 200$
AEM Tru-Boost controller = 300$


Total 31,080 parts mod.

Not a penny of labor!

KBB Private party values:
30,077 Excellent condition
$29,477 Very Good

Some people use the general rule when trying to sell a modified car is 75% of the parts value and no labor. That would make this car

31,080 * 75% = 23,310

29,466$
+23,310$
52,776$

I understand, that no one is going to spend 52.7k for this car!

so how about 50% of parts cost?

31,080 * 50% = 15,540

29,466$
+15,540$
45,006$ TOTAL

and you know what?!? I'm going to take another 6 dollars off, because I love yall here at the forum!

Any lower than that and I will just return this car to stock, YES, I still own every stock peice I have taken off this car, but I'm 100% sure I can sell everything for ATLEAST 50% of the price I paid originally.

Getting ready to wash it and take some pictures to post tomorrow.

Please let me know if you have any question!! PM me
I've already discovered parts that havne't been added up, so this price may change slightly.

Quick pix:







Next three pictures of when I first got it, looks the same, besides the rear wheels and z06 exhaust




Cheers! :
