What is this worth?

I was given a spare set of runners, plenum, and throttle-body off a tpi car my buddy is trashing. I cleaned them up a bit and polished them. They arent mirror finish but could be if the buyer really wanted them to be. I would put it on my car but I'm going carbed and selling this will help me get there faster. Just wondering how much it's worth and if anybody on here is looking for a tpi setup..Thanks guys

Do you have the wiring harness too?

I'd say not even that. TPI systems are going for what they used to anymore since there are other options out there that aren't too expensive. I sold my TPI setup a while ago for $250 and that was with the runners,plenum,intake,fuel rails,injectors,TB,bolts, and most all the sensors. Granted mine wasn't cleaned up or polished because I didn't feel like taking the time to make an extra buck, but still. You'd be doing really good to get $200 out of it IMO.

Not to sound like a jerk.. But I buy the complete TPI setups, ECM, injectors, wireing harness and all for $200 Canadian, and that is hook it up and go, mind you I polish them and fix them up for more.

Well, I just bought three TPI systems for 511.00.

(3) Plenums
(3) Sets of Runners
(3) Lower Intakes
(2) Throttle Bodies
(2) Fuel Rails
(2) Sets of injectors
(2) plenum extensions
(2) ECUs
(1) Maf Sensor and boot
Plus the majority of the hardware.

I wouldn't expect you to get much over 100 or so for what you've got. If they were polished to a mirror like shine, you could probably get 250 for what you have.
