I understand that car makers design a car a certain way, but the PCV system is more for environmental purposes...
i don't think the oil will ever clog anything on out cars, MAYBE the PCV valve itself, but it's usually a cheap fix (or at least on my last car it was $4)

Again some of the members that installed the catch cans on their BMW's never see any oil in the can. Others that drive very aggressively and create very high boost on the TT do see as much as a 1/4 of an inch in oil over time. It is a $200 investment, but I think for the Z it is a waste.
