Default crank case pressure, and your down pipe.

ok so I'm done with my 76 mm front mount set-up. not having ay problems blowing seals yet. (running 1-2 psi,while waiting for tune)

anyways I was thinking, why not run lines to a down pipe to help suck out crankcase pressure. I know they do it on big cube n/a motors. will this work on a turbo car? i have a shitty catch can on the car right now. maybe my set-up is not done right, cause at idle the car "puffs" abit. once I give it some throttle the smoke stops.

my set-up is DS valve cover going to PS cover then a 3/8 id line going from PS valve cover to a catch can. then going to a nipple I welded on to the intake pipe for my turbo. I have a big filter where the oil cap was.

I'm just thinking if this method works then I'll just run some -8/-10 lines to my down pipe with the hopes of cleaning up the engine bay and getting rid of pressure with out oil/smoke under my hood.
