Just recently put together a 1fzfe turbo build and was wonder about vacuum routing. Already blew out the valve cover gasket form the boost going through the PVC system. Can I just vent the crank case system with some type of oil catch system. Any help would be great. Still new to turbo scenario
Details on the turbo set up ? US spec OBD II 80 ? I routed the PCV over and tied into the brake booster line on my SCd truck so as to not be pressurizing my crankcase.

Route the PVC and Crank case to a catch can and then pre-turbo. stuff in red.
Or if you want to smell the nasty stuff vent to air. View attachment 2135141
Yes it is a cx racing kit. It's not really worth the money in my opinion. Going to be looking into a better turbo, possibly smaller one. I have one from a 5.9 12v cummins that I might fab up to fit. No a fan of the turbo lag it has at the moment.
Most questions have been answered. You will want to vent those lines out of your VC to an air/water/oil separator. Best to have a 1 way valve in it so you don't have a big vacuum leak or plumb it to pre-turbo. You will also want to address the other vacuum lines that shouldn't see positive pressure.
Yeah a 76mm turbo is way too big. 60-62mm is the sweet spot.
