I can add some more to the rice list:
-putting part manufacturer's stickers on your car, if you don't have any of their products
-a fart cannon on a stock piping
-driving around with unpainted ground effects
-oh, and here's a little something to complement a fake BOV  http://www.extremedimensions.com/3878.html
There's one more thing. I saw a saturn a few days ago that had a "VTEC tuning" sticker on the trunk lid. WTF? i couldn't stop myself from laughing.

If you dont want a turbo kit but want a BOV the only other way to have a REAL BOV is:
1. Get a centrifugal sc such as the paxton or procharger and instal a BOV

why would a BOV stay open if installed backwards?
BOV dont open from the back pressure, they open from the vacuum in the intake manifold when the butterfly closes.
When you are accelerating in a naturally aspirated engine, theres a vacuum in the intake pipes right? So if you install a BOV upside down so that the part that is normally connected to the intake manifold (opens using vacuum) is actually sticking into the intake pipe where there is a vacuum, it would stay open. Correct me if I've overlooked something though.

im not sure (i doubt ANYONE is REALLY sure) but i dont think the vacuum at WOT would be enough to open the BOV, and if it did open it a little, the extra airflow would cancel the vacuum right? but then when you let off the throttle, the spinning engine would make a bunch of vacuum and open it, but i think that would surge your engine back up, thats where the problem lies.
