Jason, et al.,

I have been eying a Mann Hummel ProVent model 200 for this very purpose. The ProVent has a filter element to catch fine vapor and a mesh to encourage the vapor to condensate into the oily residue. The residue is stored in the bottom of the can where a petcock drain is located.

Oil separator -> ProVent -> turbocharger "intake" tube. The ProVent is pricey but I figure I only need to buy it once, and new filter media every now and again.

Naturally if there is a better alternative I'm all ears!
