i use one.. my setup is b series..

i run pcv valve --> closed catch can (jaz catch can can be purchased from jegs, comes with drain valve) --> check valve --> intake manifold

for breather ports i run valve cover fitting open and i have additional fitting on top of engine oil cap added recently.

heres a good thread regarding catch cans https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1199935&page=1

i'm adding aditional port to allow pcv valve to vent during boost. last picture i posted in that thread explains what i'm trying to do.. i'm almost done doing that setup

thread creator really knows what he's talking about, its very important to have a good ventilation setup.
