They should have designed a bracket into it where it would have mounted to the stock location. The weight of the piping and engine vibrations over time is the problem.

F'in sucks. I love the manifold. SOOO much more power with it than without a can't give it up.
i was thinking the intake charge pipe will sorta support it since i am turbo....
but good to know......thanks !
