Default I always wondered

When my car goes over 4500 rpm I'll hear a noise as if I was at a lumber mill and the logs are going into the buzz saw. The metalic blade buzzz. I'm figuring I have some leak - like cracked manifold or wastegate pipe.

Do you get the replacement EM from Audi?

Default I just upgraded to the OEM 2 piece manifold for that very same problem.

Hopefully that will be the last time that is required for some time.

Default I plan on getting it welded.

Or at least try to have it welded.

It's cast, and the crack is kinda in a wierd to reach place.

If not, I'll go with a tubular from Dialynx, or a two piece like 1984cgturbo mentioned.
