Fix that bracket.

If you don't, you'll probably end up snapping the studs that hold the turbo to the manifold, which is possibly a bigger PITA.

I still don't believe that bracket is necessary. There are 3 HUGE bolts holding it to the block!

Then again, expert I am not. Maybe it's to reduce/stop torsion from the cat-exhaust?
