My evo 4 with a six engine 9 Turbo fills my oil catch can full of oil if I do alot of hard runs. It vents to atmosphere with both cae breathers connected to it.it's fine unless I do say ten mins of hard driving and some high motorway pulls. Runs 1.7bar any ideas as dip stick never comes out should i fit bigger breathers in cam cover?

You sure it's a 6 engine.
Check the engine code on the block below the exhaust manifold

Could my Turbo be causing this as I have no breathers going into the intake at all cleaned the pipes and there covered in oil again. My Turbo has no shaft play or end float play
