Hard to say. I have not, but many swear by them. YouTube shows several examples that people have installed and how to do it.
Personally, I don't think it takes something expensive, but if and when I do, I want it to be not gawdy and in the way, but EFFECTIVE and not really noticeable.
It can be done - think of it like a small Water Separator, that you can easily monitor and empty from time to time.
Also remember that Dexos Oil serves double duty, both as a lube, and part of the engine cooling system. The thin viscosity encourages it to vaporize, thus more fumes...
When I decide to do it, it will be interesting to see how much oil gets collected in the "Catch Can". Only then will I know if it was needed, or just a waste of time.
I will post results if and when I get around to it. Currently, I am in the middle of a lot going on...
