Got a question, hopefully for folks who have been in the same or similar situation.
I have a 2020 Ram 1500 -- and like many I've made some aftermarket bolt-on changes. One of those changes includes long-tube headers and true dual exhaust with Stainlessworks redline mufflers (which is to say basically straight piped over 3k RPM).
Technically -- the truck is not street legal. There are a lot of other bolt ons, typical stuff, ram air cold air intake, MOE's 87mm ported throttle body, bilstein lift with zone off-road upper control arms, 35's, 18" bullet hole rims, diablo tuner and hemifever tune, probably some other stuff I've forgot about.
So, the question is -- sell it as it sits, and how much value (if any) does he mods add or take - or restore it to factory (I have all the OEM parts, so that's no issue aside from the day or two it'd take to do the work, schedules permitting, plus I have a heated shop so that's not an issue either)?
Ideally, I'd prefer not have to deal with selling it personally -- I'm a-ok with give me the vin or carmax type deals -- but my guess is they won't deal with the car. In that regard, I tend to think just putting it back to stock and selling the aftermarket parts is likely the route with less hassle. Again, any insight is appreciated.
