Default BOV location

so i have a vortech v9 g trim on my 98 camaro. theres a BOV on the (i believe) intercooler (after charger) and it has a rubber hose the goes to the one side of the intake before the charger. i have done some research and found that the BOV has to be before the MAF. now my question is can i place my MAF right before my TB for this to work? or is there a certain distance it has to be?

you can put it right before the TB, itll work fine. I would just go maf-less and get a speed density tune though

Speed density is tuning soley based off MAP sensor readings instead of MAF/MAP combined.
