Default warped turbo manifold

if a turbo manifold is warped, does that leak a lot of boost? or can i correct it by using like 2 gaskets

It all depends how how bad its warped. Mine wasn't too bad so I just torqued mine down onto the head. Mine was only off a few mm though. If not you could just get the head flange machined.

shouldn't affect boost, but having the flange faced wouldn't hurt either.
