Yes thats it , you can confirm by tracing the line back to the oil filler neck , may I suggect you install a separator of some type between the filler neck and the turbos suction to avoid excessive oil ingestion (by your motor , of course).

Catch can , separator ......... same thing , I got the GREDDY catch can and modified it by puttin in another nipple which is to be connected to my turbos suction so I can get some vacuum in there. So now have three points , the two original ones (one with the check valve for off boost operation thet goes directly into the UIM , and the other connecting to one of the catch tank nipples ) and a third new one that I run from the (metal) oil filler cap to the catch tank using -8 braided line .

DuMaurier, could you show a picture of what you're talking about? That sounds really cool, but I'd like to see a pic so I can see exactly what you are talking about. Thanx in advance.
