Default Forward facing manifold guys

So I'm running a AFI-FF manifold. The t4 with dual gates. You could imagine with the gates, down-pipe, dumps and everything all on the manifold when its mounted it is pretty heavy. I ordered the ARP exhaust manifold stud kit. Do you think that will be fine to support it all?

I took the studs out and use stainless steel Allan head bolts.. Never an issue.. Mind you I have a topmount

The exhaust manifold studs should do fine with that setup. They should hold

Couldnt hurt to use a heim joint from the turbo flange to the traction bar for added support.
