Norwood actually bought it back from the guy who he built it for. His wife drove it for 12k as it sits and never had any issues. If the CELs pop up the car will go to limp mode. It was suggested to get a cheap scanner to clear them if the code randomly pops up.
Its a feat in itself to have the car function and it was pulled off very well.
Would I drop 40k for the TT? Nope.
Would I pay a few K over what the retail value of the car is to have the only Twin Turbo ISF in North America, that was put together and owned by a true car guy? We will see

To be honest, if you can afford a $60k car, another $40k is likely not out of the question. But I concur that if power is all you want, a GTR is your best bang for buck with $100k burning a hole in your pocket.
This is an ISF fanatic's dream, not a "best deal". But it IS (no pun intended
) an awesome car no matter how you look at it. 450whp is absolutely nothing to sneeze at and it's literally one of a kind. 
With a completely disposable income I would be extremely interested!

I don't recommend buying highly modified cars. It scares me even more when it's a one of a kind highly modified car. I have been at the mercy of a "one-of-a-kind" mechanic for such a car many years ago. It wasn't cheap, and the worste part is the feeling that you can't do a damn thing about it! Helpless to the mechanic's agenda or else the car won't get fixed.
Don't put yourself in that situation.

If you gave me the choice of this car or a completely stock IS-F at the same price, I would take the stock car in a heartbeat.
There's a reason why after all this money and time that he's selling this thing. I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole..
