I've looked into it for my Camry. It's a spendy item, about $200.00 if I recall correctly. It might be a worthwhile purchase for some folks.
One issue to be considered is that most any filter you use would hang lower than the original (if your car has a vertical canister, as on the Camry) and could be damaged in certain situations. Another consideration is the replacement filter itself. Getting one that physically fits shouldn't be a problem, but getting one that has the correct bypass relief valve pressure will take a little research. There are various relief valve pressures available, and I don't know what's appropriate for the different Toyota engines, nor do I know how different relief valve pressures will affect performance and engine safety. Maybe someone reading this has the information and expertise.
So, in conclusion, it could be a worthwhile option, just do your homework.
