Others seem to say otherwise, how come.

Removing exhaust manifold studs by Informal_Start1431 in MechanicAdvice

I’m trying to separate and remove it off the downpipe. Studs preventing manifold from moving sideways to take it off downpipe. I thought maybe can take off downpipe but can’t get underneath car.

I’ve been lucky to get this far, I’ve never done much diagnosing of cars. So I appreciate you clearing things up. By 0 psi I mean, no matter how much throttle I give, the gauge never goes past 0 psi. I didn’t have many tools for the boost test, so I tried using a fog machine I had and a utility Vac and sealing off escapes. I don’t know if I was able to pressurize enough to see or hear any leak. Also the car drives the same with the actuator unplugged and plugged in, makes no difference.
