IF the manifold is made with the right material, it wont need a bracket. There are alot of manifolds out there that can support the weight of a 42R and a S372 and not break.
i made the mani. and not that i dont trust the welds but my turbo weighs what feels like almost 20lbs (guess) not to mention it being connected to my exhaust system pulling and tugging on the mani. every time the engine tourques so to trust all that on a few welds the head flange is i think asking alot
but yea i am fabbing up my own w/ a heim joint and most likly going to be comming from the power steering holes on the head so im just looking for some examples

The best point low on the motor to brace to is where the OEM header braces to; right next to the lower drivers side torque mount / A/C bracket near the oil pan.
For the upper portion, I would make a brace coming from the turbo's CHRA or DP, to the valvecover corner where the groundstrap normally goes; that would be enough to solidify it and keep it short and clean.
