I want to sell my f150 once I fix all the little things (paint and suspension mostly), to buy a chrysler 300 srt8. I'm wondering if supercharging my truck would be worth it in terms of selling points. I think my truck as is would sell for 7-8k (4x4 screw with 4 8s under the back seats with aftermarket front speakers and a flowmaster exhaust. 180k miles). I was thinking maybe if I put a m112 on it I could sell for 9-10k, and I would have the knowledge I get from installing it.

Do you think it would help with selling it or no?

No. The cost you put into it would not add the same value to the truck.

Oh I already know that lol. I'm just thinking maybe someone that wants a fast truck but doesn't feel like working on it himself would pay a little more for it.

Then why'd you even ask? You got your answer above. In fact, it might be worth less in some people's eyes. You're talking about supercharging an engine that could soon be looking at a rebuild. 180K is not the ideal time to add one unless you plan on doing a lot of other work.

Edit: the exhaust and stereo upgrades don't add much either. Most people don't care that you did something and aren't willing to pay extra for it. Want as much as you can get? Take the subs, HU, and speakers out and sell them separately. Then list the truck as close to stock as possible.

I doubt I would even buy a truck that was DIY supercharged w/180k miles

7-8 for a truck with 180k??

Daymn. I'd think 3-5 is more like it.

I've got a super cab in great shape and well maintained. 125k I'd be lucky to get 6500.

That is a good idea I will probably do that. What do you think a 03 screw with 180k should go for?

12yr old truck with 180K .... $3-4K

I bought it a year and a half ago with 150k on it for 7600 lol.

It's more of a selling point in my opinion. It will make it sell faster, but you will most likely not make back the money you put into it.
