I have milky oil comming from my vent tube off the passangers side valve cover. Its never really needed a catch can until now. My check engine light came on and turbo seems to be spooling alot slower than normal. My guess is a head gasket. Any other suggestions????

That happens also cause condensation buids up in the engine.Especially builds up when the coolant temps are kept to a minimum.
I would wait till you actually have milky oil when you drain it.
I have seen this many times in all of the performance vehicles that I have owned.I believe the condensation never really evaporates fully like on a otherwise stock vehicle.

Slow spool, might be cause your use to it after 2+ years, might need to turn the wick up a little more.

I would keep a close watch on your coolant level.
You could do a cylinder leak down check or pressure test your cooling system if you have the tools to do it. If not, keep checking the coolant level.

There are kits you can buy that will test the coolant for combustion gases present in it. Thats how I diagnosed a very small head gasket leak a few years back with a Toyota.
