got a turbo/exhaust question

[Tails]

If there's a leak in the exhaust manifold gasket, can it damage the turbo if driven? or at least for sure driven in boost? I'm kinda new to turbos soo i know i've got dumb questions.

[UBERGRMN]

why bother? stop wasting time asking stupid questions and go pick up and new exhaust gasket lazy ass!

lol nooo not lazy... going down to FL to pick up a 240sx with a manifold leak. prev. owner already has bought me a gasket. just tryna figure whether i have to change it down there or if i can drive it back safely.

Should not be an issue.

its just a leak, not that big of a deal

Yeah, nothing to worry about with a pre-turbo leak. Just is gonna sound like crap and not gonna spool for ****
