With the price of that kit I wouldn't see why you wouldnt just do it right and make your own catch can. Pretty much there is no way to get around modifing your PCV setup without using a catchcan. Either you run a vented catch can or you run a sealed catchcan while utilzing the beroulli effect catch can. I did my entire setup with the sealed catch can for under $100.

Im wondering if you really need a different pcv system for low boost (6-8lbs)... if your not in boost for long periods of time.

If your PCV valve fails than you run the risk of pressurizing the crankcase. Than you will have opposing pressure on the top and bottom of the piston...not a good thing. Don't risk your engine for under $100 to do it 100% correct. you can do it for like $30 if you really want to. No point to risk what you got for such cheap $$$.
