Does not make a huge difference where you want to place it. People have argued to put it on the hot or cold side for a while now!
Seems most FMIC kits have the BOV attachment just somewhere on the cold side around 6-12" from the throttle body!

You'll need an adaptor, and a silicon joiner.
Pic of mine with my home made adaptor, to give you a rough idea. Mine is an early car, so not totally accurate for your needs.

So its just a case of making a plate that i can bolt my bov to and a silicone hose the other side and looks like weld a piece of pipe to my intercooler pipe that i can attach the hose to ??

If you need an adaptor plate let me know. I have a couple spare. (depending on age of your car)

You need 1 adaptor plate, 1 hose joiner from the FMIC pipe to joiner and 1 hose joiner from recirc back to the inlet pipe.
