    Large or small intercooler? What is the mounting style? Condition of the pipes, heat exchanger and clamps?

    If in good condition, maybe 500-750?

    The LC1...how many miles? That, maybe $75? People are on to the deficiencies of the LC1, so compared to the latest one, figure half the price of that new.

    Small intercooler. Piping is metal.

    $500-600 is a steal. $300 would float it out your door with wings. $750 isstill fair, but would take more time, I think.

    IIRC, a basic setup like that is about $1000 new. Fetailed pictures, to show the condition of the fins on the IC, etc. always helps. If I need to sell something fast, I always stay honest about the condition and contents, then offer a fair price of what I feel would be worth it to have it gone and recoup at least some of the cost (even at a loss).

    It's tax return time, so now is a great time to post your stuff up!

    FWIW, the older FM/Bell kits like that struggle to sell for even $300. It was recognized that the required clocking orientation of the turbo, extra bends, and the intercooler itself leave a lot to be desired. It also depends on where you advertise, for instance, most of the mt.net crowd is quite content to throw together an eBay intercooler kit for a couple hundred bucks.
    I've got a lot less horsepower - luckily they are Japanese horses - usually in better shape and more motivated.

    So is fair pricing at 300 plus or with shipping?

    Wow! Did not know that. I clocked my last turbo with a Bell IC system, but it wasn't a big deal to me. IIRC, that kit was around $1100. Of course this is back in '04 or 05...

    Yeah, this kit was that much back then, had the same setup on my '95. But as soon as both Bell and FM redesigned their intercooler kits to the current styles, this style of kit dropped in price drastically.

    I'd try the $300+shipping, looks to be in good shape and you have the hardware. Someone wanting a PnP setup would be happy with that.

    Thank you for your advice. I had to ask because this is new to me.
