Default PCV Setups?

What are you guys doing for your PCV setups on ls1's? I am almost done with my twin turbo build and have just a few things left to do... Install 80lb injectors, BAP, and gotta do something about the stock PCV setup. Whats the easiest route to take for my PCV?
Also, I have the stock injectors, MAF, and MAP in right now. I been driving around (Few Miles Here and there) on this setup running about 2-4 psi boost just making sure everything is working as it should. I have some 80lb injectors and 2 Bar MAP but wasnt sure if once I install either of them if I can still drive it a little till I get my tune?

Ill post pics once I upload them online.

Thanks
BC

Thanks
can anyone post a diagram or maybe a link to show how you guys are running your pcv setups or catchcan setups?
Also, anyone know if I can install the bigger injectors and 2 bar map with stock tune or should I wait till I get my pcm tuned before I install?
Thanks

You need to talk to Frost or one of the other good tuners about running those injectors and 2bar MAP with a stock tune. IMO I don't think you can.

hes talking about the 80's you need to be tuned for the bigger injectors. have it towed to your tuner or leave the stock ones in to drive thier just stay of the throttle and out of boost.

I would be more worried about the stock parts. The stock MAP doesn't read anything above 0 psi. I think that would be a more significant problem than the car running poorly or not at all.
