Default Exhast leak (Manafold to head)

So I found a pretty decent exhaust leak yesterday on the corner and right next to it kinda under it. Could this be cuasing my low vacuum problerm and reson I cant boost ? Also have a leak on my downpipe but I would see why that matter in this case. Thanks

exhaust leak wont effect your vac, but it will affect spool, power, etc. what manifold are you using?

ouch. timeserts aren't cheap or fast but would do a nice job of fixing this.
drill and tap for next size is probably the cheapest route but you may run out of room on the flange for oversized fastners.
