Anyone running an oil catch can?

Looking at this from a maintenance standpoint:

I have it on my car. Great mod to help reduce the amount of oil blow by. I have had it on my car since the second week I got it. I just hit 3000 miles and so far there has been less than a tablespoon of oil in it. But my car is brand new. I have talked to many people with this mod, and as the engine ages it will catch more and help prevent the head from getting clogged up.

How is the fit? I know it mounts differently on the Z4 right?

It fits well. There is room on the drivers side to mount the can under the strut tower bar. There is pics in my build thread.
