Hey buddy, think I had brought this up once before. Running like the moroso evac system like an NA car would... Answer basically was that you would have to run the line back to your downpipe, and that they said the checkvalves on the scavenge system would fail due to the heat at the turbo. Running a catch can setup to the intake side of the turbo would work though, which is what I will probably do.

Yea but you dont want to evac to a rear mount before your turbo... that would be a long line down to do it after.
