adding a BOV?
ok, i see all these threads about ss/tc's adding a BOV to get the ricer sound. Now, i want that sound 
I currently have the garrett kit which has a recirc valve on the hot side? (before the interfooler). Now is there any reason why i couldnt do what the ss/tc guys are doing and not screw up my tune/MAF readings? or no.

I dont see why not. You dont have a BOV on your garett kit thats just recirculating? Do they have a quiet BPV like the stock TC's?
and LMAO about the sound but I dont think its ricer because if ricer's had that sound then they probobly wouldnt be all that slow

As long as you re route it there will be no issues.
Keep the BOV as close as possible to the turbo (turbine side) of the charge tubes (hot side)
The main function of the BOV is to keep air resistance off the turbo, and keep is spooled up between shifts. When the throttle plate is closed (foot off the gas) the turbo will slow down A LOT. By putting a BOV on, it keeps the resistance low and keeps the turbo spooled up...
