Lol,I was about to say the vacuum is screwed now until I read the last post.I have customers do this all the time,when they come back and say my tuning is screwed I pull off all the breathers they added and say it's fixed now

For turbo cars I just run a big breather like that with 1 line from each valve cover going into it. If you don't like the fumes and want some vacuum under boost we use a catch can/seperator(big) and run a line to the turbo inlet piping.This will pull a vacuum under boost and help seal the rings.(If you run a filter which creates a slight restriction)

Ya, I'm gonna add another breather port to the driver side valve cover... now that PCV is removed. I'll tie both valve covers into the breather can. After driving around yesterday and this morning I am not getting any crank case smell after lift so the breather can placement on the frame seems to be working out good. Have you tried an exhaust pipe venturi for crank case evacuation?

Thanks,
Bill

I've tried probly everything out there and prefer the catch can with line running to the intake of the turbo the best. Of course most of our Turbo cars are tuned SD with no MAF.

With the line running into the turbo inlet do you get any oil into the intake?
I know most oil is getting taken out through the catch can you spoke of but just wondering if any does end up in your intake.
Thanks.

You will get oil mist in the intake since it is fumes.Mount the catch can low like the one pictured and it should help.
