I've done this with most every car in the past 15 years and have gotten as high as an 80% return on sold parts if you buy quality stuff at the right price. I peeled $12K worth of stuff off my Audi TT, $5K off my GTi, $6K off my Mustang and all were still moderately and nicely modded in the end making them an easy sale (usually to forum guys who know my cars) . Selling a car with the perf. stuff left on is like giving away money as few are willing to pay for your good taste (or lack of it). Nothing like a poorly modified, hacked up car with to bring it's value down.
Yea but its exhaust. Just an odd thing I guess. If it was something else I can see such as a completely modded suspension but I can understand. Lots of work but if the returns are good its worth it.
