It's only about 5lbs heaver then my S480 and I ran it hanging off the manifold for over a year daily driving it probable about 25k miles without any problems. Manifolds that are 3/16" thick are pretty strong!

What gears are you going with? I use 4.10s and boost is almost instant at WOT with same turbo on 408.

I've always wondered just how much weight is hanging off of those 6 little exhaust manifold studs with a setup like this, and what are the limits of the studs. Not questioning the strength of the manifold, looks to be quite heavy duty. But at what point should you consider additional support for the weight of the complete assembly?
