more than likely you will just lose exhaust pressure before the turbo, resulting in a loss of performance. This is when an exhaust leak will matter the most.

when your manifold cracks and leaks exhaust it sounds alot like a manifold with a blown gasket! if the cracks large enough your exhaust wheel will not spool very quickly and you'll have a hard time reaching and substaning boost.

^^^Exactly, it takes longer to spool the turbo.
