Default Whats the Correct catch can routing for a front mounted single?

Im almost done with my T4 Single kit. Setup is-
HS single kit
Standard truck mani kit, turbo is a PT7675, PT 46mm wastegate and RPS 50mm bov , want to run 10-11psi for now.
Brute speed blower cam
Will be spraying meth
All supporting mods

My question is what catch can should I go with and what is the correct way to route all the lines to the can. I want to have proper crank case venting here.

I've seen so many different ways and I only want to do this once.

I used the saiku michi dual catch cans. I know there are alot of guys that vent the catch cans, but I recirculated mine and haven't noticed much if any blow by. The below is the diagram I run and the catch can I used

Just sub the supercharger with the compressor side of the turbo

MM`s catch can works perfect!! I have one on my old hot rod and have had the car running two weeks now. Water collects in the bottom...easy to drain..simple hookup! and Great price!!

Nice looking catch can, Might Mouse. I'll have to give you a shot when I'm getting to that point of my build. Looks like a nice piece.

I don't think there is an inherient gain in running the duals outside of just more capacity to catch oil vapor. Had I known MM was doing those catch cans when I bought mine I would have probably picked up his. It's a badass catchcan. The saiku michi works good though. Have no issues and draining it is pretty easy.

typically its only enforced when you are trying to sell something comparable to what a sponsor sells, but

no sponsor has a catch can that does what mine does, other than Huron Speed, who buys from me
