Gday ppl, my first post here. :headspin:

There is no concrete proof of the effects on that forum, has anyone tried doing this?, Would there be any problems doing it this way.

I don't intend doing this but I am curious.

Hi Mark, it's actually quite common. The idea is to avoid reversion form a big turbo gpoing back though through the AFM when it is mounted in front of the turbo. By having it after the intercooler there is no reversion problems.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Where would the line from a plumb back BOV connect to the piping in this situation?. (the line that recirculates the air)

you would have the BOV mounted in the intercooler piping BEFORE the afm, and then you would plumb the outlet back into the turbo inlet pipe.
