Seems ok, but I wouldn't take the car without first listening to the engine. Make sure the ticking is ticking, not knocking, a few hundred could turn into thousands. Just need to be very careful with modded DSMs (modded anything, really). Otherwise, looks like a nice project.

i would check out the turbo first. make sure they have paperwork on the car before you by. spokane is known for its stolen car market. the ticking noise could be a blown spark plug gasket to not enough oil in the engine.
