Sound of an Exhaust Manifold Gasket Leak on Turbo Charged Engine

This is a gasoline turbo charged engine with an exhaust manifold gasket leak. It made an awful noise. It was the first time that I'd heard an exhaust manifold gasket leak sound this way. On this particular engine a considerable amount of back pressure is built up in the manifold before the waste gate opens. This pressurized exhaust gas pushed through the multi-layered metal gasket and made a whistling noise....I'm sure not every turbo charged engine that has an exhaust manifold gasket leak will sound just like this one, but I thought is was interesting and worth adding to my channel..... I hope it helps!
