Default catch can question

I just recently put a turbo on my 99 gsr. At the garage we disconected the pcv line from my intake and put a vaccum line from the wastgate to that vaccum fitting and plugged off the pcv line with a bolt. Now hte crankcase pressure has nowhere to go and is coughing out the pcv tank on the back of the engine and landing on my cat. My question is can i just unplug the pcv line and put a breather on it or do i have to run a catch can and if i do what is a good make to buy

why did you plug it off? you would of been better off leaving it open

your best bet is to buy the Endyn catch can.

you need to unplug that. Some vapors will come out, but that is normal.
