Re: Crankcase ventilation
If you want suction in your crankcase, do a slash cut in your exhaust, with a check valve to keep exhaust surges from pushing back into your crankcase. Slash cuts will actually increase in vacuum as boost/load increases, as opposed to intake manifold which will close the PCV valve and give you none. The intake tube port has a similar effect (though not as much) but also will spray discharge into your intake.
You don't need crankcase vapors to lubricate your wastegate actuator and BOV - a lot of the time your crankcase discharges are steamy (water vapor) nasty fluid anyway. Plus your turbo willl almost always spray a finite amount of oil there anyway.
