Default Installing a DV backwards is Better???

since there is a few links out there on how it holds boost better, is there anyone here that has the nipple from the vaccum line facing the hood?
rather the the oem way, facing the passenger fender?

Default Doing that with a stock bosch unit

while running more then stock 7-8psi is only going to last you a few days. But facing it that way with a metal after market bpv is the way to go.
