diagram This is the diagram that I found already. but it confuses me .Under boost the dirty pcv goes in the turbo. back in the engine ,which changes tune up right ?

As I said in my post, I moved from the LS 6 spot to the valve cover, and added an oil sep-i also added a ck valve, so boost doesn't blow back into the engine-simple design-I know Mighty Mouse sells a setup
By redoing the system, it thru off my tune some, since a PCV is like a vac leak, and you are adding less or more air in the engine-I run the Holley HP, so anything seems to throw it off tune, lol-the stock PCV valve allowed less air, so I had to add air at idle

This isn't a very clear pic, but I come off my 90 deg adapter, then the ck valve, oil sep, and the hose goes to the DS valve cover
I don't know who's ck valve it is, someone gave it to me
Prob a diff/better way of doing it, but this works-only thing I wasn't clear on was which way the oil sep goes, lol
Here was an interesting item I had looked at

I used to have my setup like that till i got tickets for having vents on the valve covers.Changed it up and now I have dual (mms)cans tucked behind my headlights.I daily drive my car alot in the summer and modded cars are always on blitz for **** like that to ticket you. The only thing i didnt like about venting the valve covers is the slight odor at times if i was pounding the car long enough.
