Just put a breather filter on the valve cover.

You could route the valve cover to another catch can. Not really worth it though. Just put a filter on it.

just run it open.. that pressure needs to get out.. if filter gets clogged it will lead to more problems.. mine setup is IM --> catch can with no filter --> PCV valve and valve cover open.. been runing like this for 20k.. it breathes out so nothing goes in.

Actually there should be vacuum on it at times. You need to have a filter.

Corinthians PM me directly with this question stateing this was for a a NAturally aspirated vehicle.

This is the forced induction forum so this post does not belong here and will only further confuse people on the correct PCV setup.

Whats good for NA is not good for FI when it comes to the PCV system. I.E. you do not want to connect the the pcv line to the IM in a boosted aplication.

This post needs to be locked or moved.
