I recently purchased a boosted KA S14. I went to drive the car this morning and it sounds like it has open headers and is lagging on power. I intend to remove the turbo manifold to check for cracks but how else should i go about diagnosing? Sorry for my ignorance, first turbo car.

Edit: It has an internal waste gate HX35. I assume the waste gate is stuck open but not sure how to test my theory. Would an open waste gate make the car sound like its running open headers?
