I heard mase stop making the kit , Im not sure thats what i heard on the street I live in fl, buts thats what someone told so dont hold me to that, theres like 20 options for kits now. and you dont need a strut bar if thats the case doesnt do much on the car anyways
My Mase kit just turned up a couple of weeks ago.... so I don't think so.

as for mani, i figured if i could find a way to add some more support holding it to the engine itself, then hook the engine to this strut bar, like a torque dampener kinda thing, then it might help a lil bit... just an idea, i want a strut bar regardless lol, even if its just for the fact it cleans up the engine bay in my opinion... (Atleast im not slappin a pos bodykit and some "PuRpLe NeOnz yo")

My Mase kit came with a new support bracket for the turbo. Have not installed the kit yet (waiting on oil bolts to arrive), so I can't comment on the effectiveness, but it looks solid and should supply the additional support desired.

nice idea. However the manifold needs to be supported by the engine since they move together.

I have recently installed the Mase Kit and there is a stout support bracket that is mounted from the turbo directly onto the front of the motor.
