There's many different ways to go about it but generally you can only pick one method to vent the crankcase. A lot of guys just vent through filters, while others choose to outsource vacuum from the intake, exhaust, or pumps.

I've always liked the idea that a crankcase under vacuum frees up HP so I've always went that route. I see guys spending thousands on vacuum pump setups but I prefer to source vacuum pre-turbo with a baffled catch can. It's cheap and the vacuum is constant. The exhaust evacuation system looks pretty solid but I've never used it so I have no input.
