you can put it on the intake right before the throttle. but it will only make you put turbo on it. and its useless on a non-aspirated car. the turbo sends way more air than stock civic. the BOV have a spring in it that only opens at a certain pound per square inch. no high pressure = no Blow off. unless u reduced the spring tension then you will be just making a vacuum leak ;(

Well, if you want to point to it and say "I have a blow-off valve," you could attach it to your air intake tube. It won't actually do anything there - won't make any noise or anything. The sound from a blow-off valve comes from when the pressure in the intake blows out it... and you simply don't have any intake pressure to run through the blow off valve. But you CAN put it on there if you must...

It won't work, It sounds like you want your car to make the "Swoosh" sound when you shift, Without the Turbo there will be no air to let out the valve
