Default Torque mount question

How many of you don't run the torque mount on their d16 eg?

My wastegate is in the way so i removed it but if i modify the mount like cuting 1 of the 4 bolt it will clear.
What should i do?

M4d sty13z paint sh0p sk1LL2... not as close as Hotrex but still...

this is the mount:

the red circle would be what i'd remove

and if still dont figure what i'm taling about, it the piece number 1 in this pics

i cut mine in half to clear the stock wastegate.
it was a bitch to get to so later on i got another wastegate and extended the arm.
both ways worked.
i should probably put an uncut bracket back, but the 2 bolts hold it up fine. no probs.

Uh, I don't think Honda put that one extra bolt there because it looked good.

No, they put it there to raise the price of the car
