Ummm, just wondering...what's the going price on a built KA w/ turbo, tuning system, trans? Engine has less than 2000 miles on it, runs like a champ and is good up to 550whp (rod limits).

Why? Are you ditching your ka-t?

It depends on the set-up, but I'll say:Engine: 2500Turbo set-up: 2500-3kTrans: 200

So maybe ~5-6k

Not exactly sure though. How much did you spend on everything? Maybe take a reasonable percentage (60-75%) of what you spent overall.

I'm doubting it'll go for $5-6k, but I'm thinkin' more along the lines of $3500.

The engine build consists of:

Arias 8.8:1 .020" pistonsK1 Technology (Turbo240 Sportsman) forged and shotpeened H-beam rodsClevite77 bearingsARP head studsRock head gasketRotating assembly balanced (from crank pulley to pressure plate)12lb flywheel240/248 camsmild port jobCustom bottom mount T3 manifoldT3/T04E 50 trim TurboXS

Fully programmable ECU (stock ECU modified w/ daughterboard, non-encrypted), chip burner, spare chips. System has launch control/2-step/flatshift feature

Z32 MAF525cc/min injectors (Subaru STi)Accel coilIC pipes to fit pretty much any FMIC you want to run

I'm not 100% sure I'm ready to sell it, but I'm certainly entertaining the idea. So, just guaging interest in the setup to see if it's worthwhile to sell.

I think you'll be able to sell it for that, no problem.

Heck, if this had gone up for sale 7 months ago at that price, I'd have bought it.

I'm thinkin' $3k would be appropriate, since it has just under 2k miles on it.

If you're interested, let me know.
