Default BOV Position

well this might be a stupid question but i know that you want your bov as close to the throttle body as you can. my question is in cali everyone is getting written for their bov. so i was wondering if i placed the bov under the the piping so it is less noticable would it still work properly and function as if it were on the top or does it have to be on the top? thanks for any help!

its actually better as close to the turbo, becuase its releasing pressure from the turbo, I took out my windshield wiper fluid resavoir and mounted my tail bov right there facing up.
