Hrm, a used VF39 is around 550 w/o P&P&C (Port, Polish, Coating)
I would guess an AFC is about 100
HKS SSQV BOV is 260 new, about 150 used
MBC is about 100
Cold Air Intake is about 100
Perrin Turbo Inlet Pipe (I assume he means h)ose, not completely sure, but probably around 200 (Perrin parts are expensive)
Gauges that he has posted will cost about 300 total w/o pillar pod
Pillar pod is 50-100
Perrin O2 Simulator - 50 bucks
Short Throw Shifter - 50-80 bucks

I think if you make use of all the parts or even sell half of the stuff, you won't be getting ripped off. However, I personally don't see much of a use for AFC, MBC, unless you need it for major tuning. Not sure how good the brake set up he's selling is worth. I don't think I'd pay more than $1500 for everything. But, that's also because I don't really see the value in these parts. After you get all these parts, it looks like you still need a down pipe and a cat back, along with tuning, possibly fuel injectors, intercooler, and fuel pump (but I don't think it's needed for a VF39 running on the WRX 2.0 block).

It also comes with a APS uppipe which I will definetly keep. I also want the gauges, brakes and short throw. Everything else I was going to try and sell. I don't want the vf39 on my car because later down the road I want to do a vf34 maybe.
