Default DIY: Tial 38 mm wastegate bracket

Hi,

Just wanted to share how I secured my tial wastegate. I know many have run without any support to the tial with no issues but my suspension setup is uber stiff and the wastegate top got punctured from vibrating and somehow hitting the area surrounding the wastegate. Anyhow what I did was take an exhaust hanger and fold the 90 degree angle flat so I could slot it and bolt it up to the wastegate bracket. Not the sturdiest of brackets but I'm sure it takes some load off the exhaust and minimizes vibration. Check out the pic.

I did something similar but used the original wastegate bracket. You just need to cut part off that extends out so it clears the tunnel.
