0il misting

Took the car out for a drive sunday after 2 months sitting.Forgot how fast car was.Car ran great.Noticed a slight oil mist on passenger side frc .Ran car up to 6,000 rpm in 4th gear.Made 10 lb boost.Have a breather on passenger side valve cover.Do you think this is normal.The oil mist on the cover.Also have a catch can.The motor is forged.

On my TT car, I use a regular oil cap. Can it be drilled like the A&A blower kits so I don't get oil mist everywhere?
