You'd have to look in the intake. I think catch cans are a good idea no matter what. One of those just in case things.

Increased blow by is common on FI engines due to the raised cylinder pressure and a catch can with a breather on top is always a good idea.

After reading some threads on this subject i really confussed.
Maybe someone can explain to me?
My passanger valve cover is connected to the inlet of the procharger.
I inspect inlet pipes and see no evendence of oil.
Do i still require a oil catch between the pvc valve and the intake on the driver side?

Exactly. On our year Cobra's the drivers side catch can is a must have.

I would run one. It will not hurt you as far as performance goes.
