There are real versions of that manifold and there are rip-off versions of that manifold. From the one picture, i cant tell which you have.

i have that same manifold. had it on for about 2+ months and it's still together working fine. i'd recommend turning the wastegate flange a bit so that the turbo can sit flush. that's the only problem i've had with mine so far.

I have had that manifold on my setup for over a year. It will crack in various spots with no bracing. But once braced, it has been a very good manifold for me. Just a good solid brace from the block to the turbo to support the bulk of the weight is all thats needed.
