where to place bov?

I've been reading that there's issues with maf cars with bovs. im not sure where to place mine in the system. My maf sensor will be in the same location as they are for the lsj's cuz part of my piping is a fujita intake. so any suggestions on which side of the intercooler the bov should go on? or can i just stick it by the throttle body?
