Another reason its on the hotside is to clear the pressure near the turbo so it doesnt come back and load it up. Which is one reason alot of people recommend it being placed as close to the turbo as possible.

And technically, I’m pretty sure the BOV must be recirculated from a legal/emissions stand point?
