Default Ok to Vent PCV into Atomosphere?

Hey guys got a quick question, I have a MY01 with a comptech SC @ 15psi. Im getting more oil in my intake manifold than i would like. Im running the stock Pcv inline with the supra one. Can i just cap off where the PCV line goes into the intake mani and just run a line down under the car to have it vent to atmosphere? Will this affect my SC in anyway? I have a breather filter on the front port of the valve cover and was just going to cap off the intake mani and run a the PCV hose down under the car.
I know i could get a oil catch can but im reading where if u dont get one with a baffle in it they dont help. Im looking for a cheap fix to help the amount of oil getting back into my intake manifold. Cheap Ebay oil catch cans work?? Dont really want to spend $100 plus on a oil catch can.

Thanks

Venting your PCV line to the atmosphere will not affect your SC. How much oil is being expelled from your PCV line?

Not sure how much oil. but if i get into boost hard then just park it sometimes when i start it up its will smoke for a few seconds. So im thinking im getting a bit to much oil in there. This just started after i installed the SC and only seams to do it if im boosting/driving hard then park it. Its done it like 2 or 3 times but have only had the SC on the car for maybe 1500 miles. The car only has like 14k miles on it.

Mines been venting to Southern California air for a few years now.


That's why I'm leaving this state, I polluted it too much.

A little oil isn't a huge deal, should be like a pepsi cap worth after a hard day of tracking. Mine does even less.


Research "CRANK VENTS" Btw. Probably something to know about at least.
