I have an IIS web server and my manager has asked to enable advanced iis logging. Would there be any impact on performance?

Does enabling advanced logging in IIS need more disk space

OBVIOUSLY collecting more information will use more disc space.

if yes can you please estimate on how much would be the increase ?

How long is a piece of string? No idea what you collect. Heck, given that I do not know what you collect NOW, I can not even give a multiplier.

Would there be any impact on performance?

Yes. But that is irrelevant. Relevant is whether there will be any RELEVANT impact on performance. Using twice disc IO is an impact - but going from 1% IO to 2% is not relevant.

And again, as we do not kwow what you collect now and how busy your discs are, how can you even consider expecting us to answer?
