Please don't take this as a dick comment because so far you have been very helpful. I am not possitive of the effect nor have I felt the difference first hand. Have you ever felt the difference with your ITB idea before you did it? The greatest things in life have been figured out by trial and error. No one has thought of anything that could cause serious damage to the motor. At this point the worst thing that could come of this is I get compressor surge and/or feel the normal effects of running VTA with a MAF. My turbo will not take a dump after seeing compressor surge a handful of times.

No offense taken. I was just trying to warn you before you spent a decent amount of money on something that isn't proven. As long as you realize the consequenses, go for it. Don't forget it will be difficult to go back if it doesn't work because you will have to modify your existing manifold.
I would actually rather see you run a BOV-less setup, but use a 2nd throttle body on the turbo inlet. Old F1 teams did this to help reduce lag because the compressor would spin in a vacuum on shifts instead of releasing all of it's energy in compressed air. Just throwing that out there as another "new", rarely used, idea. I think that has a little more merit (in theory) over venting the pressure to the exhaust manifold.
