BAH, don't listen to Directfreak 
That manifold looks to be welded pretty good. The welds look better than my manifold and mine is still 100% crack free after 1200 miles. If you brace it the chances are it will crack, not prevent cracking. SS likes to move around with temp changes. One thing that looks strange on it is the turbo flange side. A T04 flanged turbo may bolt up to it but the ports aren't matched right. You may find that what ever turbo you run will hit the lower intake manifold because the FC lower sticks out a little farther than the FD ones. Time will tell how it will pan out for ya.
