I would advise rigging up/welding a custom bracket if you're worried about stiff ride or low vehicle exhaust to ground contact backing your manifold or turbo bolts out and/or blowing turbo/manifold gaskets. It isn't needed, but is definitely helpful! PBM sells a cobra downpipe that eliminates the need for an elbow (less bolts to worry about) and uses a flex pipe in the downwards section to avoid scraping it on the ground and shaking off some vibrations to the manifold. It comes with a bracket that you can adjust to raise or lower the exhaust as well. That bracket will do the job. Well worth it in my opinion.
Otherwise, first suggestion: weld your own. Like others have said, there's a chance the stock bracket won't line up anymore...unless you're stock downpipe.
