After disassembly, I found my RH exh manfold had a thin crack. I never felt a loss or heard it. I don't think it mattered to the performance at that

After disassembly, I found my RH exh manfold had a thin crack. I never felt a loss or heard it. I don't think it mattered to the performance at that stage. However to sell the kit I simply purchased a new one and considered that part of the cost of selling it. (Which must have helped the sale.)
Certainly not a good design. Bracing may help? Not sure what the cause of the crack, it may have been excess load from a turbo's weight, or it may have not had enough room for expansion?
