Please don't put exclamation marks in your title... this is not ebay!

Look over the site and i'm sure you'll come up with something... maybe have a look at the turbo project section

Mount it on your exhaust manifold, duh! j/k Anyway, mount it anywhere between the turbo and the throttle body , so you can release the pressure before it backs up into the turbo.

If your asking if you can mount it on the pipes that are on your intercooler, yes thats fine. Just cut a groove in the piping.. sit the bov on there as straight as possible and jb weld it sealed. The idea you have will work fine
pm me if you need some more info

Can i mount it before the IC?
is turbo surge , when the turbo gets air pushed back on the compresser side (reverse flow)?
1.if not what is it?
2.how does it happen? how do you stop it?

just put the ------- BOV anywhere after the ------- compressor side of the turbo, you ----, it don't matter anyway, you don't even need a ------- BOV, unless your gona run a ton of boost, like ------- ton, ---- a ton, just ---- it, just ------- mount the BOV, who the ---- cares what compressor surge is, go fuckyourself.
