That's nothing for 1K miles, either it's not pulling out enough or you have nearly 0 blow-by.
Really?! Anything to be concerned about? Or just be glad my Italian tuneup is working

I was having big exhaust smoking (at idle only) after APR CC installed, anyone experienced?
But, it is normal now with no smoking after I rerouted the front PCV hose, which I did it as OEM- Front PCV port connects to intake manifold.
I took out the plug (APR provided) from rear PCV port and use another hose connecting rear PCV port with APR catch can port, then no smoking anymore.
So you made the APR CC layout like the ECS CC layout but reconnected the vacuum source from the intake manifold to the front of the PCV plate? This is the setup I run and crankcase pressures are a non-issue.
The can is designed to trap the junk, so hopefully nothing gets by but cleaner gasses. It's catching the gunk as much as possible to prevent it from getting into your intake directly.
You can't run the can to the manifold alone. Think about how the engine works when there's boost pressure. Boost would go from manifold -> leak into can, pressurizing it -> blast full force into the PCV system.
All the pressure building up in your crankcase at that point would have nowhere to go. Remember, the gasses in the crankcase build up much faster when you're boosting the engine hard. So, they can only go slipping past the rings, or maybe blow up the PCV and blasting out the rear plug if not alleviated. In that scenario, the can would only work when you're off the throttle, so no good.
I believe so. There is an engine removal hook that would need to be removed, then the edge may be trimmed to fit.
Boost. The front and rear tubes are linked, but operate with check valves in place to ensure they can't see boost pressure when stock.
