    hey guys, new to the whole turbo scene hehe

    the flange from the exhaust mani to the turbo has a serious leak (gettin a new part tomorrow). like u can see the gap and exhaust coming out when u first hit the throttle. im guessing this is fucking destroying boost lol. my questions are how much would this effect economy it seems to be shit right now andddddddd it smells quite rich could the leak cause this, or would it be cause its cold/runs cold.

    thanks team

    Yeah. That would be causing your boost leak, and making it run excessively rich. I'd put that problem at number 1 to be fixed.
