after the holiday season I'll definitely be looking to put an electronically actuated VNT into the GM Benz. If your project hasn't been completed by then, I'd be happy to help out (I have a good bit atmel and arduino experience).
the next big project I'd like to work on is a fly-by-wire accelerator with a force-feedback pedal. I'd like to make my IP rack actuated by a servo, and replace the function of the ALDA with force-feedback. The pedal would offer no resistance until you reach a point where the microcontroller decides you're about to start making black smoke, at which point the pedal pushes back against you. The key here is that the force-feedback would be weak enough that if you mashed the pedal, you could overcome it. This would allow you to inject additional fuel in emergency situations, while remaining environmentally friendly in day-to-day driving.
so of course, having an arduino-controlled VNT would complement that system nicely!
