i am replacing all by burnt piping today.the way i ran the intercooler pipes i put them around the left of the shock tower and then shot straight over to the the throttle body. right now i am planning on putting m hks ssq bov right by the intake. about 4 inches from where the piping enters the engine bay. my concern is twofold. one is this to far from the throttle body to effeciently vent the air charge? and two is it to far for the hks vaccum line to run?

You want the shortest distance from the throttle body for the BOV and the shortest distance for the vacuum line from the vacuum source .... period.

ahhhhh still not happy with it. i setteled on a location for now. right where the abs pump used to be. but now im worried about the bov being to close to the turbo and the vacum line running to close to the turbo. i have heat wrapped the manifold and down pipe. i also have a turbo blanket on the exhaust side of the turbo. am i ok? :1zhelp:
