yeah that's why you see guys with FI set ups running high boost typically run a catch can set up, their intake or i/c piping isn't sucking in oil, and the catch can can somewhat "catch" some of that before it enters through your intakes

here's a snap shot of one we cnc'd at the shop for a GT-R. Except ours you don't need to dump out or hand drain, it dumps back into the block via the very last hose on the bottom

Catch cans are nice. I never really thought much about it on my Z (I didn't ever check to see if there was much blow by to begin with) but I ran one on my 5.0. Should probably run one on the Focus ST too.
