4wd cars don't have the bracket, its and 'A' shaped bracket with a hole at the top.

Look at my T4 on the left and on the top right you can see a bit of a plate sticking up where the bracket would fit.



and going into the car the same system is being used...



... so I guess you need a mounting plate but I'm afraid I'm not familiar with your turbo - anyone else help on that score?

As above. you need a new C clip that holds the turbo snails to the core, and has a hole in it for the hanger, like so:

Its only a flat piece of metal, nothing fancy, so cant imagine it being much.
Give CR a ring, im positive they can sort you out, they probably just dont bother to list it on the site.

Failing that, im sure someone will have a secondhand one you can have?

You can easily flatten a actuator holding bracket to do the same thing as well.
