I tune his car and help him with some of his parts install, after seeing his v3 I figured I should update mine (it's the v1 or v2 the previous owner of my car was one of the beta testers for Powell)

There's no straight answers out there besides from people like John who actually design systems to keep the gunk out. I myself see no issue with putting a catch can for the intake>vc as well as the vc>turbo lines. But I don't build them to fully understand the benefits or negative effects they could have in the long run.
The blow by would basically be vented back into the intake from passenger side vc port. Its more like its drawn back into the intake actually. That's the port ur catch can .....if they worked , would go on. The Powell seperator reroutes that line through seperator before dumping back into intake so all oil in the air is drained back to pan.
