3.0L Complete Engine with Supercharger - Parts or Whole

[torquewrench]

I have a complete supercharged 3.0L engine removed from a 2011 S4. The engine WILL turn over by hand, but it is difficult. Before removal, it passed a compression test completed by Audi. Removed valve cover and all looks great. Supercharger is good. Unknown issue that is causing the issue. 68K miles.
I'd like to see if anyone is interested in it as a whole, or if anyone is interested in parts. Preference to offers for a whole. No accessories (alternator, etc). For reference, the junkyard will give me 750 for everything.

Availability: After 11/1/16

Engine is sold

How much for Supercharger and Throttle body? Can you let me know price together and separate? I could drive to pick it up.

I think he stated he does not want to part it out

IF there is enough interest in several parts, I will part it out. I can contact you if I decide to part it out, but please give me a little time to see if there are others interested in parts. Thanks!

That would be my preference, but time will tell. Requests for parts is ok with me but I am going to hold out for a short while to see if there are any buyers that could use the entire engine.

I'm interested in the left and right intake manifold if and when you decide to part it out.

I haven't dug into this engine yet personally, but doesn't the supercharger sit between the heads? I wouldn't' think there are separate intake manifolds per se as the air flows from the supercharger directly to the heads.

Just so everyone knows, the b8 and b8.5 short blocks are different, so keep that in mind.. thank the electronic power steering in 8.5s

What is the issue with it? ...as in, what's it doing/not doing? (I saw you don't know the cause of the issue)

Most of the time, the engine wouldn't turn over with the starter. Sometimes it would start up, then die immediately. After trying everything to see why it wouldn't crank over, the shop turned the engine over by hand and found it to be very difficult. Trans disconnected, spark plugs were out and all accessory belts removed.

What came of this, anything still for sale?

I apologize for the lack of response. I didn't get much interest in parts, so I sold the engine for 750.
