Scuba steve came over and helped ( did most the work ) with my intercooler kit. It was a b**** but we got it done. Also relocated the MAF and installed the snot can.

why not? having it on the hot pipe means you're not wasting energy cooling air thats just going to be blown off anyway

actually havin on the hot pipe doesn't make a diffence.you dont waste energy either way. imo its better to have on the cold pipe since the job a bov is meant to do is to relieve pressure when throttle closes.. n it bein closer wud actually be better for its purpose

you're wasting heat transfer ability of the IC by cooling air, and then releasing it. and location relative to the TB is irrelivant (other than turbulience, in which case having it further away is better), seeing as pressure anywhere in the charge piping is the same..

either way having it on the cold or the hot side doesn't make a difference.. since its not effecting anything.. the heat tranfers ability of the IC wont if be effected enough to cause any kind of concerns.. so really its jist the persons own personal preference to put it on the hot or the cold side

Its not a lot of work if you do what focus did... As far as me knowing to much about this place it just proves that I have no life. lol
Just wiggle and twist if you can... hopefully you dont have the stock plastic crap. I hear those are a pain in the ass to get off.
Driving the car around till the pipes are warmed up helps too.
