Run the PCV vent to a catch can before you input it back through your turbo intake.
Heat shield your poor brake master cylinder.

And welcome to the circus.

I have a heat shield but the car doesn't run yet so it stays room temperature.
Someone else mentioned the catch can.
Any preference amongst Miata guys?
I was told moroso by one person then told it was junk by the next.

Cool Cool

I can't speak to miatas since I'm not running FI on mine yet. Had a mishimoto on a previous turbo car. it did its job, but the open vent I had allowed moisture to get back into the can which turned it into a milkshake which made me freak out about my car until I figured out what was going on. I've never had issues with any Moroso product though. Most people have one bad experience with a company, don't give it another chance, and preach the mistake as gospel for years afterwards. Honestly even a heavy walled plastic bottle would be fine as long as you're not pulling enough vacuum to collapse it.

TL;DR: mishimoto not bad. route it completely or don't bother at all.

I see you've taken my advice and joined miata turbo.

Now go start that build thread!
