Catch can use question...

Well my turbo has been sent off to PTE for repair. I've been emailing back and forth a few times today. He didn't say anything about the size of the oil feed line. He wanted to know when i thought it was leaking oil. All i could tell him was that i noticed the burning smell the most just after a wide open pull. That would be when oil pressure is at its most, right? Well, then he thought maybe i have a crankcase venting issue. I emailed him back pretty much the same as below. He hasn't gotten back to me yet.

On the 4g63 valve cover are 2 fittings:

-One is the line that goes into the stock intake pipe to the turbo inlet
-The other is the PCV that feeds into the stock intake

I have both of those hoses going into a JAZ catch can. It's a 1 pint mini breather can with 2 nipples. See below link for a picture of it.

Question: Is this setup of mine bad by going into that catch can? Am i causing a problem by running it and therefore not getting crankcase pressure out? Please enlighten me on whether what i'm doing is really bad.

Thank you.
