    il get a pic up tomorrow, as you look down the wastegate flange you can see a crack towards the pennie valve, as you look at it over the top you can see the two cracks leadin to the pennie valve, airline cracks.

    If they are very small then they won't really make any difference, if they are quite bad it may result in your car not holding boost very well.
