Thumbs down What are my Options

Hey guys, I don't think I am going to be able to keep the car as is, or keep it at all. It's paid off has 105,000 miles. The car just causes too many issues/problems. Anyway what do you guys think I could get for the turbo kit and all the other stuff. I know I would probably lose a lot of money selling the car as is with the turbo kit, just trying to figure what the best way is to get the most money from the car...........

If you must, part it out. You'll take an even bigger hit keeping it all together

Joe, you know what everyone will say. DON'T DO IT! If you do decide on selling it, part it out back to stock, and sell the turbo kit by itself. You'll get around 4-5k for the turbo kit if you do sell it by itself.

Honestly it's just becoming more and more evident how irresponsible it was for me to do this to my daily, being Im not in the greatest position to go buy a daily. I LOVE, and I mean LOVE the car, but love the wife more, and the F---- car is just always an issue, not really fair to her. Wouldnt be an issue if I didnt have to worry about going through headgaskets every couple of months..........

Is that turbo just to powerful for a daily driver? Or is having a turbo at all unreliable. I'm currently setting up a purchase of a Turbo'ed S and I don't wanna make a mistake.
