Default Should I sell my '05 enthusiast WITH or WITHOUT the TN kit?

So I'm going back to school in October and I'm having to cut back on my finances Unfortunately the car will most likely have to go....... I JUST finished paying off all the $$$ for the turbo project I did back in March.... The TN kit only has about 5k miles on it!!! Here's a quick rundown of the mods I have on the car:

-Stage 2 comp clutch
-SS clutch line
-single TN kit (water cooled & open waste gate setup)
-AEM wideband
-Autometer boost gauge
-Turbo beanie
-Turbo XS RFL blow off (also have the Raptor BOV)
-Injen SES titanium exhaust (custom welded for the TN downpipe)
-18" Gram Light S57 Pro w/ Toyo tires
-Blacked out headlights
-Custom PPW console interior





My question is, should I sell my Z WITH or WITHOUT the TN kit? I know I won't get much more for the car if I leave it on there, but it's going to be a lot of work to yank that thing off and sell it. So I'm not sure if people would buy this with a TN kit This was PROFESSIONALLY installed, and I have ALL my receipts/dyno sheets to verify EVERYTHING. I didn't install this kit myself in my garage. This was done RIGHT!

So what do you guys think? Keep the TN kit on there, or sell it separate? And if sell it, how much could I get for the TN kit and the accessories?

Thanks guys!!!

You will get more $ if you part it out. And sell as a stock Z. I would like to have that XS BOV.

Don't know. Advertise with the turbo. See if you get any offers.

I did put up a "Feeler" thread in the classifieds.... Got a couple offers But it's only been up for a day. I also posted on a local Z forum and everyone thinks its a GREAT deal! It would be a AWESOME deal for someone local (Tampa, FL area) It would be a easy swap at S&R where it got installed
