resale value

I have a 2008 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 double cab sport addition with the six foot bed. The truck has 164,653 miles on it. it has a URD c38-91 supercharger on it along with Doug Thorley headers, 800cc fuel injectors, UConn EMS piggy back system and URD 255 LPH fuel pump/filter kit. deleted cats, upgraded performance transmission and upgraded shift kit from IPT performance. the problem I'm having is I want to sell it but it is having low compression issues when it is in WOT, other than that it drives normal. I don't know what to sell it for and maybe someone on this site can help me out.

 

You speak of compression testing with a closed vs open TB, correct? There should only be a few % points difference, if any.

There is usually a larger difference in % if you do a wet vs dry test.

And have you done a leakdown test to try and determine if the problem is ring or valve related?

 

I would say between $8k-$10k depending on condition

 

I'm not sure what he did other than a compression test. the truck runs perfect when driving under normal conditions but the moment I WOT the truck it looses power and one time it started to shake and I coasted into my drive way and turned it off for a minute and the n back on and it ran fine. if I was going 60 on the highway and wanted to pass...it would just choke out. I have replaced the fuel filter and also coil pack and spark plugs and it made it idle better but after those things were replaced it started to lose power under WOT, where before it would not do that.

 

Could possibly be a clogged cat

 

With the engine idling tap the maf sensor lightly with the handle of a screw driver. If the idle fluctuates it’s a bad maf sensor (or so I hear). Start replacing dry rotted vacuum hoses, too. Good luck!

 

I'll give you 20 dollars right now

 

Have you hooked up a code reader?

 

well I figured it out it was the upstream 02 sensors, got them replaced and it runes great. now I have to figure what would be a good price to sell it for.

 

Wow, very good news.
Good to hear it was something’s simple and easy.

If the engine and trans are healthy.
I don’t see any reason not to ask $20k or so.
Start high and work your way down on price.

FWIW, I have no idea what it’s worth.
I do know, from experience, aftermarket up grades will only bring a fraction of what you paid for them.
I’ve lost enough money on modded trucks and bikes, I tend to leave my stuff pretty much stock anymore.
