Okay..
to quote cincy:

It puts the dv after the intercooler so instead of reciculation the hot air its cooler. Also putting the dv as close to the tb the better it performs: Faster DV response and Less turbo spool down on shifts and off throttle.

Guess I was wrong. The only peopel I have seen do it here have the sliptter and did it for a louder woosh sound.

RE: DV relocation kit

anytime you put if over the pressure side it will be louder. But yes, the turbo spins faster between shifts (faster respool), less risk of surge, and cooler temps on the dv/bov.
