You gonna make a heat shield for it to prevent the sucking of the hot under hood temps.

If anything it may be a decrease from stock, because of the increased amount of heat being drawn into the breather.

Props for hooking the CCV line up correctly, but you know you're drawing hot air downwind of the radiator and power steering pump, and a few billion BTUs off the exhaust manifold, right? You got yerself a Hot Air Intake

It atomizes the fuel before it hits the cylinder, cold air is for sissy boys.
