Default Thinking of selling my supercharger..

I have other needs coming that might require me either selling my supercharger or sell my car. I haven't even begun to think about much of it yet, but I was wondering if anyone knew what would be a fair price to sell my kit for. I paid $4200 for it.

The blower has about 10k miles on it and I would probably just buy a new fuel pump instead of ripping the one out of my car because it is such a pain. I guess I wouldn't need my defi gauges and "science of speed" gauge pods either.

Help me out here guys so I don't try to ask too much or little.

Thanks!

Why do you want to sell it, I suppose because it does not give the desired result?

No, actually I love the supercharger. It has made my car absolutely amazing. I need to sell it because I need to use the money to invest into my up and coming business. ( http://www.carandmodel.com ). I need to buy a new $5000 camera..

The D60 is cheaper, maybe you should consider that instead. I think a lot of this emphasis on "professional" vs. "consumer" or "prosumer" models in photo equipment is hokum. It either works for what you need to do, or it doesn't. Of course I'm not up on what added features the EOS-1D has, but are they worth $3K more?

Depending on asking price and other details, I may be interested in your used SC. You say 10k miles, what kind of miles? Do you track it a lot, or drag race, street race it, or just "normal" driving?

I've not spent any time looking at my options yet, but from what I see the Comptech appears to be pretty robust and requires minimal installation effort. You mentioned fuel pump, but what else would I have to buy in order to install it?

How does the SC S2k compare to your WRX? Have you had any problems with the SC? I would offer you quite a bit more than 2k for your kit. Would you also be getting rid of the blowoff valve? Thanks!
