Gotta be worth 6k i'd say....that's what i'd want to part with mine too lol. Trouble is people just don't seem to realise how much it costs to build a properly nice rs turbo, why most people just break them. There's no way the 2and3k figures that people expect to pay are realistic for really nice ones imo.

I dont think i could ever sell it complete because as you say people would never pay the money it would have to be broken The th2's are ET37

It's a shame that to get a mere 3/4 of the money you've spent on something you have to strip it to bits and sell it off to the highest bidder I've put nearly 10k in mine now not to mention all the days off work, nights up the barn in the cold etc doing it. I wouldn't get anywhere near that.

Agreed and i think the vast majority of people who build these car now know your never going to get back what you put in even thow you couldnt buy one for the same money
