The side opposite of the gold part should be pointing towards your intercooler piping and the "side" should be pointing towards your intake pipe. Just think that the pressurized air should be hitting the part that is closed by the valve.

there you go

and as for azzmasta, it's not about making noise, evo's on factory MAF sensors should not run VTA bov's like the HKS SSQV, it will throw off the readings, as well as causing the turbo to stop spooling, so it will have to spool up again in between each shift
