For people looking for that Oil Cap Breather... I think I found it...
http://www.pfyc.com/pc/GN3020/GNUNDE...er+Filter.html
I remember hearing from someone that the Cobalt SS oil cap was the same as the LS1 which means this should work.
Now people said that the PCV system doesn't work well with high boost applications... How high? I run a 2.7" pulley and get like 17ish PSI. Would I benefit from a breather cap?
When using the breather cap do you keep the stock systems in place? What about the stock line on the back of the valve cover that some people put a catch can in. What is the consensus of what t run? Breather and/or catch can?

Also would it be worth it to do this to my M62 SC'd car?

That is the exact breather I use. I did the DIY catchcan and it runs off the back of the valve cover. Plumbed to another tiny breather

So you made this twincharge yourself? I'm guessing so beacuse you said the turbo and s/c are running both at the same time, zzp's kit opens the blower bypass once the turbo spools. This would be sick to see in person, do you ever go to the meets in Ottawa/Gatineau? I've never gone but I'll be there for sure if your going to one, lol. I live in Petawawa, about 1.5hrs from Ottawa. When my car is paid off I'd love to go this route with it and I wouldnt mind seeing it in action... How much did you spend on parts to put this together?

yes I made it myself, I run the same setup that zzp run, the bypass open when the turbo spoolthe problem is that my setup run a big trim, a t4 with A/R 0.86
normally this turbo spool only at 5000 rpm on a 2.0l engine and push a lot of cfm, but with the supercharger, it spool instantly and the bypass is not enough for flow all this cfm...
I'm guessing about, where the turbo guy's put their MAF, after or before the turbo, where is the best?

It was on the hot side before the intercooler since there is no room on the cold side on my setup. 270F and boost was causing all sorts of problems. Now it is right after the filter and behaving well, it does not even mind the BOV to atmosphere. We had it pretty much tuned from scratch within 5 dyno runs
