Gt Inlet manifold- braket

[xrrich]

Fitted this today just wondering if the braket at the back of the manfold to the block is necessary?
My Braket doesnt fit the GT, Was doing some research but could'nt find if they are necessary or if there is a different one for the GT's
Thanks

Nah should be fine without it if you mean the bar underneath the manifold. I've not got it on my car.

Brilliant, thanks sam, yeah i have just read that gt's dont come with them anyway?
Intresting.

THanks

Maybe there to support the extra weight of the tb and boost pipes?
Still thought it fit though, did you undo the bolt at the bottom aswell, as to allow the bar to line up better with the top bolt hole?

did myn afew month ago and my g40 bracket wouldnt fit nither, if i rememba correctly the mount for the bar/ bracket is of to the side more on the gt manifould, no way of fitting it any ways without modifiying anyways, i havent had no problems nither
