Default Vac Manifold to PCV port

What's up?

Was curious about this setup, in theory it should work fine. I'm about to boost and I plan to gut pcv valve and run a line to catch can and then from catch can to intake pipe pre-turbo. Instead of capping the pcv port on IM, I was going to run a vacuum manifold feed to this port instead of tapping into vac source for brake booster. I want to run bov and boost gauge on this vacuum vs t'ing into fpr. Anyone done this?

Thanks

You can do that, but it's recommended to use the booster port due to its increased size.

Thanks man, I was thinking of either doing a vac mani or individual vac sources but don't want a bunch of tee's in the bay. I only need 2 so it wouldn't be too bad I guess, but word of mouth is that the bov needs it's own. Also, trying to stay away from fpr vacuum, if something leaks and it leans out, that's no good. lol

I feel like a dipshit, why not run a tee to the pcv port and have the bov and gauge share it? Versus running a block just for 2 parts, seems legit.
