Default Turbo PCV system?
Hello, What is everybody doing for there PCV system when adding a turbocharger or two? Right now I am venting to atmosphere on the passenger side and intake hooked to the driver side valve cover. Been thinking of either adding one way valves on both covers or venting both, possibly add ls6 valley cover if I go with one ways, building my 408 when I get home just want some opinions. Car will be a weekend driver that will mostly get challenged when its out, also plan on changing oil often, just don't need synthetic ruining my octane.

I have a jazz catch can that has a breather on the top. I ran -10 line from drivers side valve cover to can and -10 line from top of oil fill cap to catch can. Then have a Norris catch can with a line from ls6 valley cover to can and line from intake with a one way check valve so it does not pressurize motor. This set up works well

I ran 1/2" hose from each valve cover to a Ebay catch can, works really good for me and only cost about $25

I'm running one of Mightymouse's catch cans on my 98. No turbos yet but it's a nice piece.

Boosted can with a one way valve built into the top fitting running to the intake manifold and a relief valve at the top of the can.


I put a fitting into the oil cap for the fresh air supply and ran the two fittings on the valve covers to the can.
