I have an AMW and it's awesome, but the price of them has gotten way out of hand...I was lucky to get mine back when they were "only" 90 bucks. Too bad that RevExtreme went out of business, I've seen pics of those and they looked to be a quality piece. GMCtrk is currently running one...

Before getting the AMW I was running a home made catch can which was basically a small air compressor filter/reservoir with a drain on the bottom. It filled up quickly and saturated the filter and stopped functioning properly...oil just slipped right past the filter

What, the home made one? Yea, mine worked great for a little while (a few weeks), then I noticed that the oil level stopped rising, and when I pulled the hose off between the filter and the intake it was filled with oil

yeah. i noticed a good ammount of oil then it just stopped accumulating. I think the filter inside is too fine.
