A small tank and hose will do it. Nothing special needed.

My catch can began life as a stainless steel bathroom soap dispenser, welded two bungs on top for the in and out lines and one on the bottom for a drain ****. I chose the can because of its size - it fits nicely just forward of the master cylinder along the inner fender. I fabbed up a bracket to mount it to the existing inner fender bolts. I drained it after driving about 1K miles and got a little under 1 cup of oil out of it. I would have rather just bought an existing product but all of them that I found were to big to fit where I wanted to put it. The larger cans can be easily mounted in the well in front of the tire but you'll have to route more hose to get it there and then back to the plenum.

I bought a very similarlooking product from ebay.co.uk a while back. Looks to be good quality and well finished. I havent installed it yet as my engines out being worked on. At the price you can't really go wrong. I would probably get some better hose as the stuff supplied is a bit cheap looking
