Why did you put the BOV on the hot side?

There has been a lot of argument before on whether that is the best place to put it or not. I've seen setups with bov's before the intercooler before.

Beacuase it doesn't matter. Especially with a MAP car.

Yeah, it don't matter much anyway......If you put it on the cold side, any surge pulses just make it a shorter distance down the piping, SR setups usually put it on the hot side too.......the main point is just to stop that surge pulse before it gets to the turbo

That will relieve the surge sooner...but there's no harm in putting it further down the line......The place you don't really want it is close to the turbo, wouldn't want any surge getting that close to it, as long as you keep that in mind, don't make much difference
