Went under the car today and found this .

Pretty clearly a leak in the manifold. Appeared within the last 100 miles. Header/manifold flange has F.I. gaskets and was torqued to spec. O2 sensors were also torqued to spec and were tight when inspected.

I've had the BP kit for just over 1,000 miles and I have to say, I am not impressed with the quality control.
