Message	there seem to be a few different ways to plumb, I'm curious if it effects how much oil is sucked into the system. for example, one method would be to keep the stock pickups on the DS exhaust VC plumbed to the can, with the PCV's upstream of the can and into the stock plenum location. another would be exactly the same but with the pickups on the intake VCs (the common PCV re-route. and then there are the existing ports on the front of the intake VC's that go to the turbo suction pipe. my plan was to use a dual catch can like the one pictured below, with one picking up from stock exhaust cover locations and the other from the stock intake VC tubes, and both getting suction from the PC valves. i really didn't think they would pick up so much oil though. I don't really like the idea of having to drain them every couple of weeks.
