If a catch can is a "solution" to a problem, it is just band aid that will surely result in a negative end.

In addition, for maximum engine efficiency, a vaccum should be pulled on the crank case, especially under high load situations. Depending on engine setup, applying vaccum to crank case can yield over 50 hp, more realistically 1-5 hp (check out some high horsepower Supra's with downpipe venturi ports). This is why it is not a good idea to vent the catch can to the atmosphere, you aren't pulling any vaccum. This is also why it would be a bad idea to add a catch can that is too restrictive, which is what I assume the youtube video is getting at (I didn't watch it).

No experience with Mishimoto, but I highly recommend Chase Bay's catch can. No restriction, baffled, and uses a steel mesh filter.

Exactly, and you may have more fumes in the oil
