Default Who all reroutes breathers

Sorry if this has already been beat to death but i cant really find a good answer. Do most of you just use the breather kits to dump it into the throttle body or do you route it elsewhere? I'm thinking get it out of the engine. Still trying to figure out the set up that I want. I have the DK breather bolts but, am still undecided on AC.. Might just cut off the breather tunnels on my SE AC. Thinking I still should have a support bracket though. Any and all opinions welcome.

I reroute oil vent lines out of the intake track on EVERY motor vehicle I have. First thing.

On my Road King I used a Fuel Moto intake that used hoses instead of the built in tunnels. I blocked them and then ran fuel line hose.

I recently vented out. Before doing so I did some searching too. There are a couple of threads - the trick is typing in the right "key words". Also, I did some of the searches in the "Tech" section under "Engine / Intake / Exhaust".

Anyway - I ran into a budddy and mentioned that I was thinking about venting out. He had an older style backplate - I just had to get the breather bolts. Does it really make a difference? I can't tell but it makes me feel better not having the "crap" is not recirculated back into the intake.

If you are interested I could take some pictures tomorrow - camera is at work.
