Default How to support SRI? Easy answer

Hey guys my 94 civic came with a SRI when i bought it. Its heavy and the only support the guy had for it is a little rusted steel bracket. It doesnt do a great job of holding the Piping up and straight so im wondering what you guys use to hold your short rams piping up. If it makes it easier to answer i can post pictures thanks.

Two pieces of straight aluminum with holes drilled in them. Put a 90* bend in both of them, and a 90* twist above the bend in one. Then attach them like so:

Eh, that's not too bad looking. You will have some movement with the intake. It really shouldn't effect anything.

What reaper posted looks pretty legit though.

I don't care about how it looks i care that it's not doing its job. The pipe is pretty much hanging by itself and it worries me. I dont want it to come loose and fall, the bracket doesnt go all the way across, it stops at the middle of the pipe. It's just not helping the pipe at all

Is it not connected to the throttle body? Not trying to give you a hard time or anything, please do not take that way.
