Since the manifold only works with janspeed cat systems and a decat on the k series looses power.

I would think you have the later gasket, and that your rad is the issue. You can check your gasket anyway as you will see a neoprene green tang sticking out of the manifold at the bottom left i think it is.
Okay, might just be radiator then just sometimes there's a puff of white smoke on start up so thought it was internal leakage

So long as they hold together, sounds like you just got unlucky with that one
