Default Leaking Oil catch Can

Okay so i leak from my oil catch can. I never really dealt with one so kinda learning as I go. Car is boosted. So, the guy before eliminated the PCV and the stock oil catch "black box" whatever you wanna call it. But it seems to be over pressured idk if those being eliminated could be a cause or its just to small or what. Higher rpms with vtec nd booost kicked in it leaks and i gunned on the highway pulled over nd almost no oil. Im just curious on other peoples ideas or recommendations thank you.

The can on a streat car should be recirculated so it drains back. Is yours? If your can does drain back and you are still filling it up then you probably have a hurt motor.

Check out The Old One - Energy Dynamics for his catch can setup and diagram. Try to see if yours is plumbed the same way. If it isn't then follow his diagram.
