Don29palms Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 (edited) I have a 3.2 Acura V6 with a C&G turbo setup and Link G2 computer. It is a turnkey setup complete with adapter and all. It runs great but is too much for just playing around in the desert. I am switching to a small V8. I have no idea what this engine is worth or if there is even a market for it anymore. If anyone is interested or has any help please contact me at 760-221-3756. Thank you Edited March 3, 2009 by Don29palms Quote

Don29palms Posted March 3, 2009 Author Posted March 3, 2009 (edited) I am already having dune withdrawls. I am saving money for a special event in June so it will be next season for the dunes. I had to put dirt tires on my car just to drive it a little to get that tiny rush of adrenalin. Edited March 3, 2009 by Don29palms Quote

Thank you Since you put you phone # up, does that mean we can drunk dial and drunk text from the dunes telling you what a grand time we are having and wish you were there? Quote

sandawg Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 A "small V8", like a LS1? Any idea what the package weighs and what are you going to ask for it? Quote
Don29palms Posted March 9, 2009 Author Posted March 9, 2009 A "small V8", like a LS1? Not quite. I was thinking about an all aluminum 5.3L. I'll be giving up some horsepower but I think it will be more drivable in the desert. I know I will probably regret it in the long run. Turbos kick butt. When that boost comes on it's a rush. Quote
Don29palms Posted March 9, 2009 Author Posted March 9, 2009 Any idea what the package weighs and what are you going to ask for it? I have no idea what it weighs. I know what I have into it so I was thinking 7Kobo. If I can't get close to that I will keep it and put it in something small like a 2 seat mid-engine car like Randog's car or a Prowler Sand Sprite IiI. I've always liked those cars. Quote

More than I can afford and the wieght is super important! thanks anyway! Quote

raspadoo Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 $7000.00 ?? That sounds like a solid price, my buddy had his supercharged 3.5L rebuilt and converted to a intercooled turbo set up by C&G with the same computer you are runing and it worked very well. And for "mkenm"'s ( ) information, the conversion was 14K... Quote
dunefreak Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 yeah sounds fair to me too considering the complete turbo setup on that motor costs well over 3-4K alone. Quote
raspadoo Posted May 29, 2009 Posted May 29, 2009 a new 3.5 turbo is 9k your buddy got screwed Really, that is kind of a broad statement dont you think? Find me a new 3.5l with a closed deck, intercooled and runnin 25 pounds of boost for 9K and I might think about changing out my ls2 with twin blow dryers... Quote

Find me a new 3.5l with a closed deck, intercooled and runnin 25 pounds of boost for 9K and I might think about changing out my ls2 with twin blow dryers... EXACTLY!!!!!! Very well said. You can buy a turbo 2.5 Subie for anywhere from $6000 to $25,000. Depends who built it and what's in it. Quote
