it serves the same purpose, just that the turbo/IC piping takes the place of your factory intake.

Put it somewhere in the charge pipe. It also depends if you're running a standalone or piggyback. Then also if you're running a MAF or MAP based system. If you're running a MAF based setup then you need to have the blow off valve before the MAF.
