I hope to have one sometime this year. The good news is that in addition
to a 190E with five speed, and a wrecked 190D turbo, I also have a variable
nozzle turbocharger from a E320CDI. I'm hoping there will not be much
turbo lag, the turbo can just tighten up its nozzle when I lift throttle
to shift.
