Mine has been holding strong for 2 months, I just rigged up a support bar to hold the weight of the turbo on the block, the mani wont be able to hold the weight of the turbo up

Mine is braced in the rear(to support the turbo) but, I noticed that the wastegate flange is cracked so, I had to have that fixed as well. It's not pretty but, I think it will last now.

Just save and buy a quality manifold. I wish I would have but, I want to make some passes before the end of the season.

I would save the cash and spend it on a more quality manifold, or at least one with a lifetime warranty. Again welcome to the "tech"

the wastegate is in a useless spot, does anyone else notice that? My friend had one and he had to cut the wastegate pipe off dremel it out and position the flange lower and angled down, now it works like a charm. BUt his had held up, his is braced as well.
