What's the problem with it?

The second picture is blurry. It was trying to show that it's cracking at the glued joint.

If its cracking just go to the dealer and they will replace it under warranty !!!

that exact bracket is on a stock protoges intake pipe. OURS seems to be connected (glued) to our after i/c pipe. if its cracking id really get it fixed who knows might cause a boost leak(im gonna go check mine now)

I dont think the thing is anything but a poorly placed bracket ... if its cracked you could run some risks of serious leaks ... i would get to the dealership and have it replaced.
