What happens with the wild version is the exact opposite of what the catch can is suppose to do. Under hard acceleration, specially turning, and under positive boost pressure, the oil gets SUCKED out of the driver side valve cover INTO the catch can and then forced into the blower/intake. Oh...and any excess gets shot out the vented top and all over your engine bay and the potential of an engine fire goes through the roof.
The correct setup is again, the mild with recirculating top. Do that, no issues.

They should include a Voodoo Priestess and a Doctor of Physics with every one of these catch cans!
There can be so much to getting these right.
Nice write up, and good luck to rcoe!
