Not many yellow cars out there, but there has been one hanging out on ebay for the past several weeks. It already has a Whipple. How much "credit" in dollars would you give a car with it already installed?
Same as any other car with modifications. Stock car + 25-50% of the value of the mod. If the seller gets that much, they should consider themselves lucky, IMO.
I would think with a Whipple only you should be able to get the car with no premium. All other things being equal, a stock car should be worth more money.

For me, I completely agree. I wouldn't pay an extra cent for a performance mod of that nature and in fact would count it as a ding. Most people want to buy virgin cars, even if they mod it themselves later. Too many unknowns when aftermarket tuners/manufacturers get a hold of a car.
Reality, however, is owners/dealers will tack on a premium in the hopes of recouping costs.
9k + you need a sleeve for the intake to prevent collapse - and an Accufab throttle body, a Boost-a-pump and some other small things. All in about 13K if you include Dyno...I did it last year on my white one
For decades that's generally been been the gospel no matter WHAT 'special' car one cares to mention...'59 Impala...'57-'63 Fuelie 'Vettes', late '60s Z/28 Camaros, Cobras, '60s Shelby Mustangs, Hemi cars, FGT - whatever.
