BOV Location on IC piping??
On a single turbo 2JZGTE, what would be the best location to install a BOV? I currently have a Tial Q BOV welded after the turbo but before the intercooler. To me it makes more sense to have it mounted before the throttle body and after the intercooler. What do you guys think?

+1 - this is where the standard recirc valve resides on the standard GTE motor, and where I will be putting my recirc TiAL QR valve.

Wherever it makes the loudest "PSSSHHHHH!!!!" noise. Better to scare that unsuspecting motorist in the slow lane with their window down.
Honestly...I'm not really sure it matters all that much. The instant you snap the throttle shut the differential in manifold pressure to charge pipe pressure will open the BPV and vent. I'm sure there is some sort of "pressure wave" that bounces off the throttle plate and threatens to collide with the compressor wheel, but once the BPV is open - regardless of where in it's path it lies - I'm sure that threat is nullified.
But I'm no expert.
