My BOV is on the Hot side right now. When i redo my piping i am putting it on the cold sifde right at the TB. It really is a personal preference, as long as it release's the pressure before surging turbo it dont matter!!!! But might as well release it as soon as possible..

Salty_X · 07-09-2004, 03:12 AM

Put one on each side. Bling.

back from the dead... ish... not full revival but a little kick for good reason. i see people posting about putting the bov closer to the tb because they say its better but the hot pipe is the only way to make sense for me. i mean wouldnt that make your intercooler more functional? wouldnt you rather dump the air thats not exchanged its heat into your intercooler before it hits it instead of the air thats gotten cooled down already? you can always get the surge before it matters in any placement whether tb or by the turbo or however you do it.
