Unmetered Air code/catch can question

Hi Everyone,

I picked up a 2010 JCW about a year ago that the previous owner had given up on and I've been going through the whole car fixing all of the issues, I have everything sorted except an "unmetered air" code that I can't seem to locate. I've done multiple smoke tests and don't see any leaks. I've read just about every post that I could find on the fault and the common theme is the pipe that goes from the passenger side PCV valve to the throttle body. My question is, is there any reason why I wouldn't be able to run both the passenger and driver side PCV lines to a 3 port catch can then back to the turbo then capping of the port on the throttle body to eliminate the pipe all together? Seems like that would eliminate the gumming up of the intake valves as well.
