Exhaust leak behind engine?

I need to clarify that it was my under drive pulley that was installed at my request so the shop cannot be blamed for that. Another mechanic suggested that many Japanese cars have their crank pulleys balanced with the crank so that is likely why the new pulley didn't work.
But it really ran like shit!
I highly recommend not changing the crank pulley unless you have it balanced with the crank - just say NO!

The boost still climbs slowly and won't go above 7 or 8 lbs. I'm thinking maybe the cat is plugged, although it is only a month old, (but so were the plugs and they had to be replaced).

Back to Split Fire today to check this out and hopefully finally have the car tuned on the Dyno. I have a time attack at Mosport this Saturday.
