As was said before, a vented to atmosphere BOV after a MAS or MAF will result in a rich condition when the throttle plate is closed. My solution for this is not to let the throttle plate close during a run.

BOV's serve more purposes than preventing intake manifold welds from breaking, like preventing the reversion of air through the turbo? How about preventing throttle bodies from breaking (anyone who's run a mustang TB on a boosted car will know what I'm talking about)?
