that shouldnt cause your idle to surge. how is your catchcan hooked up?

That is too emission friendly. Just vent it. Blowby vapors mess with the A/F and lower the effective octane of the fuel.

i tried doing that before, i did, pcv to catch can, catch can to pre turbo, and blocked off the IM and my car started acting crazy after that, idle dropped tremendously and it would stall if in high speed i drop it into neutral

you musta hooked something up wrong, doing it pcv-&gt;oil catchcan and intake blocked off should/could not cause those symptoms....

ninjaedit: you need to make sure the 2nd nipple on your catchcan is open, so if your can has 2 nipples:

nip1: to pcv
nip2: open w/breather filter
im: plugged
vc nip: open w/breather filter
