![]() I hate to say it, but if your exhaust leak is that bad, you should not be driving it. So no, you won't be alright.
Take care, -Chris

![]() 1) Get the exhaust issue fixed.
2) Now, listen for any detonation. If you have any, back down the timing. FWIW, when I was near stock, I ran 14 degrees with 93/94 octane without any detonation. With my TFS TW's, I run 16-17 degrees with 94 and still no detonation. E
