Default PCV what to do with it?

ok, I do not like all that oil going in the intake seems like a detonation hazzard.Should i just put on a breather or could i plumb it into the a.i.r. port on the header so it would have some neg pressure to help pull out the excess pressure?oh, I'm making 14~15lbs of boost if that matters.

If you have a blower hat, plum it from the valve covers to a catch can and then to the blower inlet hat fitting. It has a very strong vacuum and does well enough alone. I dont see a reason for a more complicated system if you have a reg blower with a hat. For a procharger there is no reason for doing any more. I never have any oil in the catch can. I do have a water/oil separater after the catch can that does catch some foamy oil and water but not much.

use the stock pvc setup off the valve cover,plumb a air/water seperator into that and run the hose to a barb on the blower intake. problem solved. i know a guy doing this with the same amount of boost your looking at and his car has been fine. same system i will be using.
