Default Pcv line to intake of turbo?

I recently purchased a Mighty Mouse Catch Can his instructions show running a line from the pcv port on the valve cover to the intake side of the turbo. My question is how are you guys doing this my filter has no metal surface on it to drill and tap for a fitting. Where are you guys installing your brass fitting for the pcv hose? Any input would be appreciated my search attempts are coming up empty.

Thanks Ive got the diagram and know how to route all the lines my question was to see options how others set up the 3/8 fitting on the intake side of the turbo where did they tap it into? All the air filters are made out of a poly urethane and there is no where good to tap a fitting on it, the diagram show to run a 3/8 line from the valve cover pcv port to the intake side of the turbo. Below is a link to the setup diagram to better show what im trying to explain.

Ok cool so it did work to thread a fitting into the end of the filter, my concern is because it was poly urethane it would not work. Did you drill and tap it? I thought about putting a nut on the inside of the filter to help secure it but that scares me if the nut came off there goes my turbo so i strayed away from that idea.
