The car has been barely driven and has every option except distronic with only 11,000 miles. Since I don't think i will be able to sell car as whole I am parting it out.
List of goodies all with less than a 1000 miles on them:
Kleeman headers
Kleeman pulley kit
Kleeman Top Mount intercoolers (1 of 2 in country) documented 60hp gain
Custom Kleeman exhaust
VRP port and polished heads
VRP intercooler kit
VRP throttle body
VRP cams
Spare BNIB VRP pulley
The Kleeman topmount intercoolers alone were 7 grand and are impossible to get as I got the last one. VRP mods installed at motorwerks of houston and then car sent to Brandon at Kleeman USA in CO for complete inspection and mod installs.
Will sell individually or as a smoking package deal![crazy](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/crazy.gif)
Car is currently at Motorwerks in MI awaiting a custom tune from Victor.
All the above is looking for a good home

What kind of power was your making with these mods, impressive list!!
Pics of the Kleeman top mount intercooler please.
How about some prices to give us an idea and not insult you...fair request?
I am also *VERY* interested in the short tube headers and TB. Have cash and can Paypal you.

I am confused.
The cost of returning this car to stock would have to be in the thousands....and that is assuming you have an extra stock cylinder head and all the original parts still.
Why not at least try to sell the car as is?
Believe me I am all to painfully aware of how ****ty the return on mods are, but this is an unusual situation....
With all those mods I would think you are knocking on 600WHP...I am sure there is a market for a rocket like this with such little mileage.
Just my .02.
Good luck!

Wow
I didn't expect somuch interest in the parts. I will try and answer your questions below.
1. Unfortunately, I can't get rid of the wife...That would cost me infinitely more than my loss on the car. LOL
2. I have no idea how much I would sell the car complete for??? I will consider all fair offers. Very low mile cars with no stories are going in the high 30's low 40's at Manheim. The car has all options except Distronic and about 55k in mods. If the right offer came along I would definitely prefer to sell as a total car. Seems like a sin to part it out.
3. Dyno graphs - Victor is currently working on a new ecu file for me. As soon as I get it I can post Dyno's
4. I am happy to take pics of the intercooler. In fact, I will see if Billy can take some today.
If I can't sell the whole car my next choice would be to sell mods listed as package. I have to figure out how much labor cost is invovled.
However, as a last choice, I will part things out individually. I will post prices today. Just need to confer with Billy at Motorwerks.
Thanks for the interest!

Mike, it is a shame to see you sell your baby!! Best of luck with it. Hopefully another enthusiast will buy the car complete as cars like this don't come along too often. Also, Mike..stryker..is definitely a stand-up individual and a really good guy.
