I have a hairline crack on one of the welds on my Magnus intake manifold about an inch in length. Has very slight hiss during boost leak test.
Anyone know of anything that will hold the boost until I get it fixed? IE: JB weld, some kind of gasket maker or glue?
 
Just get it fixed right. Dont use any of that stuff because its going to fail again shortly after. If you cant get it rewelded right away just take it easy on the driving.
 
Let it be untill you get it fixed. That leak has a very small effect on performance. none of the methods you mentioed would help either. All they would do is put a bunch of cotaminents in the area of the weld that will make it harder to fix the weld right.
