Is it white smoke coming out the exhaust or from under the hood somewhere (landing on the headers?) White out the downpipe is water, blue is oil, unless in excess, and black for fuel. My car smoked like hell until I put a restrictor on, how much of a restriction are you running? How is your return run? The video is cool man, good luck tuning if you go with Jay tomorrow! I have the stock PCV and a valve cover breather on my deal, still spits oil out the breather, that's why they use catch cans. I'm probably gonna run exhaust evacs with check valves to create a "vacuum pump" effect, I cannot STAND leaks, or the smell of burning oil, my freakin drag car does that ish... Hit me up and let me know what you find!

The stock pcv system can not be used on a boosted car, it will blow pressure into the crankase in boost. The breathers from the valvecovers need to go into the air duct before the turbo/supercharger, and the vac line on the intake that goes to the crankase needs a pcv checkvalve that will close when you are in boost.

now there are two lines on the TB. could you place 2 check valves one between the stock vac line and then connect the valve covers to the top port on the TB and put a check valve between it? same principle i guess.

You could not do that. The crankase must be vented or it will pressurize causing major problems.

It is a closed system from the factory, but the engine was not boosted. You can still keep the closed system(my truck has one), you just need to hook vents before the power adder so boost does not pressurize the engine. A breather on the oil cap will work, but it will cause a oil smell in the car.

Ill say it again. This is the way I did mine. I upgraded to a LS6 valley,bought a breather for the oil fill on the passanger side valve cover. Looped the drivers side to the passanger side. Allready had a AMW catch can and added went to macmaster and ordered part # 7775K52 www.mcmaster.com You will add the mcmaster check valve to the intake from the catch can. Run any catch can you want.
