well considering an LCE long block is $12-13k yeah thats about right for the motor if it was all new, i mean go to the dealer and buy a new TRD SC and your looking at like $3-4k then new supra injectors at like $300 x6... yeah. and no that motor will not make 5-600hp with 15-20 lbs of boost, you would destroy the SC or the pistons, you would need to do something with the coil packs and some heavy fuel upgrades.
all and all i think the guy is hopeing to get $7k for that motor but in reality his market is so narrow, and of that narrow market its been cut down drastically by the fact that its advertised on CL and not Ebay or somewhere where the entire world can have a chance at it... i think he will be lucky to get $5k because hardly anyone will need or want or appreciate that motor. guys who race competitively wont buy it, cause they will want to build all their own motors, so the only one who will buy it will be someone looking to get into racing and or someone who has more money than brains... having said that, if i had $ 7k laying around that i didnt know what to spend it on, id own that motor right now.
Not to mention a TRD supercharger would never push enough air to make that power. Now if that motor had a good turbo and fuel mods and something to fine tune that motor could make good power. The pistons would be find as long as there was no detonation or lean conditions. They are forged. My talon made 400whp on stock cast pistons.
