Before I break some metal going over a bump I’d like to affix my K14 to the AAZ intake manifold. Is there supposed to be a support bracket that bolts onto the manifold inlet and the turbo? can someone post a photo of what I am looking for and possibly what cars it came on? Would an MK2 have a bracket that fits?

There is not any bracket between the turbo and intake manifold and I would not recommend installing one. Triangulating to the block would be helpful and reduce the stress on the exhaust manifold studs.

OK thanks. I was going to do that anyway but had no idea what was up top.
