looks great,

one thing I noticed is you have the BOV on the turbo intake pipe. It really does nothing there.

Any pressurized air will go out the filter ,as there is a huge escape.

The blow off valve ( BOV) is designed to relieve pressure in a closed circuit . For example between turbo and throttle body . ( can be turbo to intercooler side or intercooler to throttle body side, that is another discussion )

Great its back on the road.

The BOV isn't attached to the intake pipe. I have the same intake and BOV. The GReddy BOV has a pipe that runs down from that position to the Y-Pipe and connects where the old CRV was piped into. I could see how it would look it's connected there, but it's merely the mounting kit.
