Default What is the optimal distance to place my Blow off valve?

I'm doing custom intercooler piping..... where is the optimal distance away from the throttle body?

OR.... does it not matter? i can put it anywhere? if so i'm just gonna put it really close to the TB since my BOV is already connected to a pipe that makes the perfect bend near the TB...... any side effects to putting it too close to the TB??

If it makes any difference, I'm gonna be boosting 5-6lbs intercooled, with a T3 turbo using 2" piping all the way around.... (2.5" downpipe) on a b16a.......

What do you think I could run with a B16A in my 98 Prelude Type SH?
