I pulled the manifolds last weekend because I had a bad boost leak. (I could hear it!) As you may remember I have a slight intercooler leak which doesn't seem to be getting worse. As you also may remember, I'm spraying water/methanol. The runners and valves look pretty clean to me and the goo wasn't heavy. I replaced the stock type gaskets for the cork gaskets but this time I only torqued to 15 nm and the outside bolts a tad less. I realized I was destroying the little O gaskets even with even torque and the manifolds were tilting a little causing my prior problems with them. The car feels a lot better without the leak. Anyone else torquing the outside bolts less than the inside 4?
