Default Loss of power

Hi just wanted some peoples opinions here before i go get under the car to fix the one problem i know.

Well this lately i got a blowing downpipe sounds bloody horrible and get a wuw wuw wuw wuw wuuuuw ! noise when lifting off boost. Ive noticed where its coming from its the downpipe area, as from cold start up i can see vapours leaking from the downpipe/turbo area and said noise.

Anyway despite the above is this contributing to my power loss question i know its stupid as i probably answered my own question anway. What happens is when i try to accelerate away from 1st i can't get no further than say 3-4k without it hesitating and making a Brrrrrraaaaap !!! noise then the boost kicks in once it cleared and slammed in the back. Should getting a new fuel filter and possibly some injector or fuel treatment be on the list as well as exhaust gaskets? Oh and maybe the vacumn hoses too?

Cheers
