i read both of your build threads good work! i've noticed any time you took pics though you never washed the car or anything you seem to do the dirty work only! Clean them up!! haha! But the exhaust looks great, if you do it right with a straight pipe you can catch some turbo whistle too :p

The roof is on fire!
Ok, so far things have gone somewhat smoothly.. but this time it goes south but there is way to fix it!
So i started patching up the sunroof... cutted piece to fill it, that went well..
Tapped it in
That went well also, then started the issues, continues to tapping until i endup with:
So i tried to stretch the metal with hammer..
Didnt get it good enough.. so i bought this:
New roof.. im going to only swap the middle part, take of the original spotwelds and redo those when attaching it back.. i hope this endups better than the previous roof 'fix'

Back to emissions
So its back onto exhaust manifold i made up my mind and i will not do it my self. i get more professional than my self work on it but on the other hand i needed to make a jig for the manifold + downpipe to make sure they both fit when the manifold is done.
So that was the spot i wanted the turbo in, give nice room for both manifold + downpipe, now making the downpipe, bought some piping..
So that is 'planned' not going to weld those until i get the manifold, just in case that i need to make some small adjustments or something like that.. you never know

These W201 has pretty commonly issues with the sunroof, didn't work on this one and works poorly on my other merc also..
