Who has kept all their OEM parts after installing performance mods & is it worth it?

I always keep the stock parts. When it comes time to sell the car, IMO, aftermarket parts reduce the value of the car when you are trying to sell private

I always keep the stock parts. When it comes time to sell the car, IMO, aftermarket parts reduce the value of the car when you are trying to sell private party, and add nothing to the car on a trade. When I was initially shopping for my Z I was looking at used, but if it had any aftermarket parts I didn't even consider it.

When I sold my Eclipse to buy my Z, after 10 years of ownership I still had the factory cat-back and intake. The couple that bought it were car shopping for their 16 year old daughter. I seriously doubt they would have given the car a second look with a loud exhaust and cold air intake still on the car. Then I picked up some pocket change selling the parts online.
