Default my last problem (for now)

I repair most of the problems, but I still have one which makes me mad.
When I go in 3nd gear (for example) and push throttle, car going ok, but when boost reach 0.5 bar (standard max boost) engine start making noise.
and I have feeling that car going better on low boost.

Is possible that air going out on exhaust mainfold, on higher boost ?

see picture? What you thing, is possible thata air going out??

Change the manifold, when it heats up those cracks expand, and air gets sucked in giving poor performance.

Is this recommended to give the to garage to take this out and outt new one?
