Default Procharger/breather?

I just put a procharger D1-sc on with a comp cam,stock z06 heads with the compression done to 9:6.1 and LT with a full exhaust. I am haveing a problem with oil comeing out of the breather when I get on it. I plan on putting a catch can on, but what else can I do to stop the oil from going all over the fuel rail cover?

Drilled and tapped the oil fill cap. 12 AN fittings, 3/4 hose, connected to a 1 quart JAZ can with a breather. I did this mod so I would never have any problem. I've never had an issue with pressure build up, and I don't get oil in the intake.
