If you have a nipple welded in you might get away with a breather filter too --but if its pulling air you need to keep everything in a closed system.
Everything I've heard tells me that if you were to route the PCV back in, instead of venting it, you would have to do that pre-turbo. Both the AAM and GTM kits do it that way, and I would venture to guess FI is the same. The problem is the air filter in our setup is clamped directly to the inlet of the turbo and there is no room to route it back in.

Anybody familiar enough with the GTM SC kits to know what they do with the secondary PCV system (the one that OEM routes back into the intake)?

I was also discussing with Mitco39 and he told me that tapping the intake piping and routing back in would open up other issues. Can't remember all the details because it was above my technical knowledge.

So it appears that a catch can might be the only solution but wouldn't that be vented too?
