theres not gonna be any damage to your tb. bend the throttle plate, yeah right. the only damage that can come of getting off the throttle is to the turbo through compressor surge. so by your guys own definition, you would want it closer to the turbo.

the idea of the bov is to protect the turbo so is the ideal place farthest away from the turbo it can get? or would it be better to put the bov near the turbo so protect any boost from going into it backwards. because at the tb boost near the compressor might go back into the compressor, so if you have it near the compressor it will make sure no boost goes into the compressor
