Fix that exhaust leak too, thats bad because the exhaust is what powers the turbo, so if you have a leak there, its hurting performance.

He said the leak was after the turbo (between turbo & cat), so it shouldn't hurt boosting performance, but it should be fixed nonetheless.

yeah, it's just noisy, and i figure there's a small chance it's hurting my milage by screwing with my o2 sensor on the cat.
