Default Question about running Dual BOV

I am going to be running Dual Hks SSQV and i am wondering if it matter on the placement of them Ie: Do they both have to be mounted right next to each other or one be mounted up top near the T/b and the other mounted couple inches on from the intercooler on the cold side.

Seems like over kill to me, but if you are that worried about compressor surging problems place one 18inches from the tb and the other on the same charge pipe before the intercooler on the cold side.

I know its over kill but i got a good deal on the second one. High boost should be 32 to 35psi with 3" piping

Most supras that run 2 just put them next to each other.

Id place them about a foot apart on the TB side of the piping.

I have only seen that with cars that are running very high high horsepower like well over 700 to 800 horsepower like this shop down the street from me had a supra with three hks ssqvs because he blew both of them right off of the charge pipe, and my cuzin has an rx7 94 puttingout about 700 horse power he uses 2 ssqv bovs ,but like I said that was only on crazy powerful car not on no 300 to 400 horsepower honda I dont think that it would make any sense to do something of that nature.
